Burning At Both Ends July 2002

Abba, I want to be a candle burning at both ends.
On one end I am aflame with the fire of Your love for me burning into the very depths of my soul, melting my heart.

On the other end I am aflame with a burning, red hot passion for You Lord. The flame of Your Love for me melts away any reluctance to worship You. I burn with a desire to be in Your presence, in Your face.

The fire that was shut up in my bones races through me engulfing my heart, setting ablaze the perfect love that began on the end You lit in my soul Lord.

My heart, my mind and my very soul melt..... drip down.... into puddles that You scoop up in Your warm, hands.... hands large enough to hold the entire universe. Hands that gently, tenderly mould me and a new creation begins to form.

A candle that looks like Jesus, that glows from within with a brillance that casts light in every dark room it is brought into. Abba, light me at both ends. Let me burn brightly, at both ends... for You.
