A metal of value and worth, instrumental in trade and commerce, the worldly “mark of a man,” the proof of his wealth—yet the children of Israel were likened unto reprobate silver? Spurned, despised, worthless?
Yes. Most definitely.
We, as God’s people, are the instruments of trade with the earth, the ambassadors of our King—to reveal to the world in our deportment, words and actions His character. Yet we have defamed His name, marred His reflection, defiled His character.
Only He can recreate us into an element of perfection and beauty otherwise we shall be cast away as worthless silver…
Oh, may I not be found as reprobate silver, but precious and purified gold…
amen!
