January 11, 2011

Does it really only take a spark to get a fire going?
Lord, help me to throw out sparks around me as I burn up for you!
You have been faithful to humanity beyond our capacity to understand,
Yet we still turn from you.
If the Holy Spirit is really like a burning fire in our hearts, Lord,
Please turn up the heat.
Help me to burn so brightly that anyone who comes close by will catch fire, too.
I pray that this is the type of disciple you allow me to be:
The kind that lights and stokes and feeds fires that burn brightly in humans
With the light and heat of your Spirit.
Amen.
