" Remember, the anvil does not get broken even if you keep on striking it, but it breaks all the hammers. You must do the same. Just hold on, and these fires will not consume you. If the fire should burn up your piety, it would only prove that your piety was not worth having. If you cannot stand a few jokes and jeers, then you are not built together in that habitation of God that He has made fireproof "
