About the Item
"Thy Brother's Keeper" describes a time in every man's life. When he is kept and entrusted with a refiner (a person that keeps them before they become their greatest self). I read the story of David and how he walked with Saul fighting and being sent even after Goliath though he was already anointed to be King. I saw the posture of the two men as regards their responsibility. Saul the brother's keeper was not faithful in guiding David correctly and in humility. He despised his chance at relevance in the next phase of the move of God by being Jealous instead of nurturing. And I saw David, the kept man who refused to despise or hate but stayed in Understanding.
Raw Gold is meant to pass through the fire. At every point of our life, we will be the fire and the raw Gold and it takes wisdom and humility not to overemphasize the roles of these responsibilities.
