The experiences of life have a way of testing you. Whenever life squeezes and shakes you, what is in you spills out. For some bitterness comes out; for others sweetness comes out. When something bad comes out that we did not think was there, then it is time to apologize and repent some more. It is not time for excuses. It is time for taking responsibility for your actions. It is time for soul searching. It is time to talk to your Father!
Lord, refine the contents of our hearts. Ever fill us with Yourself so that our fountain will be clean and good. Forgive us when we fall short. Keep working with us and in us to keep us pure!
