The Boil Point

I just had a thought.  On a Facebook group I'm in someone just asked about if her soup would be okay to eat after being left out overnight.   The answer many gave was yes, but boil it.  

My comment was the same and I had this thought. . . 

We boil things to sterilize or take out the impurities.   It's for its own good.  

Just as God allows us to go through the heat, sometimes to a boiling point to take out impurities.   

It's for our own good.  

But, if I'm abiding in him, I should trust that I won't  boil over when he takes me to that boil point.  

Am I abiding in him, resting in the 'refrigerator' as this soup should have been resting rather than out of the protection of the refrigerator or in our case, safely snuggled "under His wings"?

I've been in both places.   The heat is so much easier to take when I've been snuggled safe and secure.   

Just thinking.
