Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time
He Is A Consuming Fire
While saying this, Jesus quenched in my heart the thirst for souls and He poured the fire of His burning charity over me in the greatest measure. (Elizabeth) (July 20, 1965)
Today’s Readings: Jesus said to his disciples: “I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing! (Luke 12)
Prayer Meditation- Lord, You are a Consuming Fire, the Flame of Love! You have come to set the world on fire- the fire of the Holy Spirit. The fire that burns away and purifies all that is not of You! We can do this narrow road the hard way or the easy way- the easy way is to surrender to You so that You can change us from glory to glory! (2 Corinthians 3:18). Lord, we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses as the Second Reading from Hebrews 12 tells us so let us run our race and put aside all that is in the way of Your Grace. Further in that chapter is the theme of these daily meditations- therefore we who are receiving the unshakable Kingdom should have gratitude with which we should offer worship pleasing to God in reverence and awe. For Our God is a consuming fire! Gratitude and surrender Lord, burn the rest of our baggage away!
