At prayers this evening I was feeling the hunger for new vision, to be captivated by something new. A speaker came up as I was thinking that, and said he felt God saying that we need to get fresh for God, to go beyond the habits of our words, and find new purpose.
I came home and wrote this short poem, called ‘Ignite’.
Ignite me.
Burn me, oh Lord.
Raise your fire within.
Brand with me your torch so I burn, burn
with your light, for your light, by your light.
Ignite me, oh lord.
Let your angels speak your Holy Vision.
Set fire me to with your Holy Vision,
releasing me into service of
‘Thy will be done, thy kingdom come’.
How I hunger to burn with your light,
To act guided by your compass.
A man without vision is an empty shell.
Ignite me oh lord. Set the days on Holy Fire.
