sweet title! hehehe...
I figure that God is constantly working on each and everyone of us. But it depends on our state, our willingness to be changed!
Just like a blacksmith has loads of scrap metal at different stages in his workshop; so we are in God's workshop.
We may feel as though we are useless , as though we're in the scrap pile - broken lives, wasted talents, fires quenched, dashed dreams - in desperate need of repair, no purpose in sight.
Others may be on God's anvil of recasting - ready with hearts open, hungry for change, wounds healing, visions clearing - longing to be rebuilt, begging to be called, but knowing & welcoming the painful pounding of the blacksmith's hammer.
Some lie in the Master's hands - well tuned, uncompromising, polished, productive - responsive to their Master's forearm, demanding nothing, surrendering all. A simultaneously joyful & painful journey!
As we allow ourselves to leave the heap of junk in our lives; to enter the fire, daring to take a walk on the wild side to discover your own purpose in Him - sharpened, defined, primed & mobile to do His will in which He has individually called you!
2 Timothy 2:21
"If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master & prepared to do any good work."
