Often I am grasping, trying to find my way, trying to find my purpose in life, or where to live it out. I am discontent and looking outside of myself for the answers. Of course, this creates chaos in my surroundings and in myself.
Yet when I have seen God move significantly in my life, giving me a purpose and a place to live it out, it has been not from a place of me searching for the answers outside of myself, but from a place of being still and alert.
Today we will imagine God’s flame burning off the excess in us – those needs that keep us grasping or hiding. Then, we can notice the flame inside of our own hearts, which can propel us to move into the world and participate in healing, justice, and hope.
Listening portion today:
“Your word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in, indeed I cannot.” Jeremiah 20:9
