The Lord is My FIRE!

#SEEKISM 249 word Narrative……….
      I’m really fortunate. I have heard the story of the Lamb that kept running away. And so the Shepherd broke his leg so he couldn’t run away anymore. 
   I liked that story & I thought maybe it was about me. Only to find out the story probably isn’t true. But maybe it’s true of me anyway… I can’t really take credit for the things that have happened in my life. Somehow God has broken in me – my resistance to His will. Every once in a good long while I blow it big time.  
   Just so I continually know how I need to be completely dependent on Jesus. But usually when I completely blow it; I don’t know I’m doing it at the time. And there’s something new I’m learning about walking in the Lord’s light & holiness.

Wesleyan’s teach a walk of holiness…. As long as we understand that it’s only more of Jesus and less of us. I think we’re on to something. Anyway I guess I was saying that my best news – – – is that inner desires that robbed me for most of my life from the deepest gifts and calls, that God wanted me to know; have for the most part been removed from me….. I mean completely eradicated. In such a way that I could know more take credit for these being burned up, than a piece of wood could for being consumed. Only the fire can take that credit. And The LORD is my FIRE!
