Luke 22:31-32. Right before Peter is being baptised in the Holy Ghost, preaches his first message as the leader of the new born Church, Jesus tells Peter how Satan desired to have him, to sift him as wheat. It sounds like a bad thing, but the truth of the matter is that wheat can never become what it was made for without going through sifting. Sifting is a messy process, but there is a message is the mess. The children of the Kingdom are likened to wheat and Jesus identifies Himself with corn of wheat. God will take us through the sifting process to rid us of the chaff in our lives. The chaff is not a part of your destiny and where God wants to take you. Jesus prayed that Peter´s faith would not fail. He did not pray he wouldn't´t cry, be hurt or mess up but that his faith would not fail. If you have faith in the middle of the mess God can still use you. Faith is a " Game Changer " Once through the sifting Jesus wants us to strengthen others, for those who have been through the sifting have empathy. God wants to give it to us if it can flow through us. " Empathy is the capacity to place oneself in another's position " By giving away we enlarge our capacity for God to pour more into us, therefore we must never break the flow.
