Still Smoldering

a[life]
alive

to You

.dead end.
deadened

to Me.

You hold me in the fire
the dark fire of sorrow--

of sacrificed dreams & buried hopes

Hold me in so I won't run away
Hold me in the fire so I'll learn to obey
Hold me in Your arms--please stay

{never leaving, never forsaking}

Oh burning love!
Light the fire that burns my heart
Change me! Take me apart!

For I know that You will put me back together again according to Your Word.
The same fire that now burns my soul will be the flame that melts and molds me into holy wholeness.


& by the light of that fire, I will begin to see where You are leading.
