The crucible for silver, the furnace for gold, but the Lord tests the heart. Proverbs 17:3
The definition for crucible is: A ceramic or metal container in which metals or other substances may be melted or subjected to very high temperatures.
Silver is subjected to very high temperatures. Gold is placed in a furnace. What about the heart? This verse implies that the heart also is tested through extreme heat, through fire.
Lord, may my heart survive this oven of fire. Use the heat to refine my heart and make me more beautiful.
