KEEP THE FLAME BURNING

New Years Eve we had a great fire going outside.  The old wood would burn very fast and the new green wood would take its timing turning into ashes.  Jay decided he was going to load up the fireplace so that the next morning a fire would still be going.   I awoke January 1 and looked out the window.  No fire, not even a spark.  I was so disappointed.

Don’t let your fire go out during 2015.  Keep the spark alive.  How do we do this?

Go to God everyday.  Yes there will be setbacks and challenges that come upon you.  You will have your peace stolen; however you can overcome all of these things with the peace of the Lord.  The goodness of the Lord overcomes any evil.  God stands guard over our hearts keeping the fire going deep within our souls.

Paul tells us in Philippians 4:6-7 to pray more.  We will have worries that are attached to many things in our lives, jobs, families, friends, but Paul says to turn our worries into prayers.  If you want to worry less about the challenges then go to Him with prayer.  Prayer gives us the true peace of God.  This peace keeps putting wood on our fire and burns out the conflict that is presence.  The fire that keeps burning is our knowing that God is in complete control. 

Keep the flame of your faith burning all day everyday.  The glow of your faith is pleasing to God.  God will keep fueling our flame with the Holy Spirits presence within us.  Burn baby burn! Show others the glow of God that is shining from within you.
