Dan, Malachi 3:3,
"And He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver."
After reading this, a lady decided to visit a silversmith, to learn about the process of refining silver.
After the silversmith had fully described it to her, she asked, "But Sir, do you sit while the work of refining is going on?"
"Oh, yes madam," replied the silversmith; "I must sit with my eyes steadily fixed on the furnace, for if the time necessary for refining be exceeded in the slightest degree, the silver will be injured."
Before she left, the lady asked one final question, "When do you know the process is complete?"
"Why, that is quite simple," replied the silversmith. "When I can see my own image in the silver, the refining process is finished." |
