Melt Down the Saints ~ Raul Ries


Draw near to God and He will draw near to you…”

James 4:8


Chuck Swindoll reports that when Oliver Cromwell ruled England, the nation experienced a crisis: they ran out of silver and couldn’t mint any coins. Cromwell sent his soldiers to the cathedral to see if any silver was available. 

They reported back that the only silver was in the statues of the saints, to which Cromwell replied, “Let’s melt down the saints and get them back into circulation.”

Sometimes God must do that with us. 

We must be melted down so that we will get into circulation in the world for Him.

Thought for the Day:

Does your Christian life resemble a lifeless statue —a monument to a time when you were and active saint?
