A star shines because of the crushing pressure of gases and millions of degrees of heat at its center in a process called fusion.
When life brings about change and circumstances of confusion, go into the center of yourself and, like a star, convert that energy outwardly through all your layers of pain until it escapes from your surface into the space around you as light or the shekinah (Hebrew for “dwelling”) glory of God.
When God wants to make your name great, He crushes everything inside of your inner man that doesn’t befit His Kingdom citizenship requirements until you brightly shine His glory.
DON’T REJECT OR DISRESPECT THE PROCESS. STAY SILENTLY IN IT UNTIL HE IS DONE.
God often uses the heart-breaking words and actions of people to polish you, but when the pressure gets too intense, He’ll send His angels and His Word to minister in you the courage to shine!
"He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday" (Psalm 37:6). And what are you to do with the light?
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven" (Matthew 5:16).
