Light the flame


There's a quote from the Warrior Doctor who says: "Great men are forged in fire. It is the privilege of lesser men to light the flame." The Bible says that you don't light a candle to put it under a bowl. It also says that God does not snuff out a burning reed or flickering lamp.

We, God-followers, people who seek to know Jesus more, are called to light the flames of possibility, of belief, of intent and (especially) hope in the nations. Hmm. The flames I light, and the kind of flames that I light, have eternal and far-reaching impact. Sobering, in the light of day.

Alive and alight, in the dark of our night.
