What's in a name?
A refiner of silver is a silversmith.
A refiner of gold is a goldsmith.
But that rarest of craftsmen?
A refiner of LIGHT ..........

What noble Godly sanity prevails in a world of madness, to lighten our darkness.

That there is a refreshing original kind thing to say grapehound! Accurate too! Oh and welcome to the forum to you.
God bless L. Ray Smith
Since I don't know what the L stands for in his name, it just might be Laser. Laser Ray Smith ! :)
Lord knows Ray has endured a lot and I surely hope God blesses him with an abundance of enduring strength to continue on either to overcome this or finish the race.
grapehound:
Thanx Stacey and Amen.
It should be Laser shouldn't it?
Every blessing
Grape

Hi Grape
Welcome to the Forum brother :)
Your post reminded me of a time when I too rejoiced in seeing Ray as Gods own ray of light. 8) Finding the light from out of the darkness is such a wonderful blessing!
1Pe 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Ray himself tells us of who he is, and I blieve what Ray says is true to the Plan and Mighty Purpose for which God made Ray. :)
"Behold, I have created the smith [that’s me] that blows the coals in the fire, and that brings forth an instrument for His work, and I have CREATED THE WASTER TO DESTROY" (Isaiah 54:16).
["waster" -- Hebrew: shachath, decay, ruin, batter, cast off, corrupt, destroy, lose, mar, perish, spill spoil -- UTTERLY WASTE, #7843, p. 115, Strong’s Hebrew and Chaldee Dictionary].
God created the "WASTER," not the archangel who later supposedly became Satan, but from the BEGINNING God said He created "The WASTER" and He created him "TO DESTROY" Now then, WHO’S role is it to "destroy" the flesh of man so that the spirit may be saved?
"In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, To deliver such an one UNTO SATAN for DESTRUCTION of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus" (I Cor. 5:4-5). LOF part 2
It is the many carnal loving, flesh following, blind and deceived hypocrites who will see Ray as the destroyer, waster or Satan incarnate, someone to be hated, accused and reviled rather than the smith of God that blows the coals in the fire and that brings forth an instrument for the work of our God!
2Co 2:15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: 2Co 2:16 To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? 2Co 2:17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
The Lords work in Ray shows His Love for us,and also His Love for Ray, is what our Forum brother Marky Mark has witnessed for us in this Thread.
Luk 24:32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
Who has opened to us the Scriptures but our God, through Ray his smith!
