Fired by the Flames – v2

Fired by the flames
timid disciples changed
Empowered, emboldened
to go in Jesus’ name

Able to go to the ends of the earth
messengers of His love
Going as we were called
guided from within

quote attributed to Corrie ten Bloom,
“I have a glove here in my hand.  The glove cannot do anything by itself, but when my hand is in it, it can do many things.  True, it is not the glove, but my hand in the glove that acts.  We are gloves.  It is the Holy Spirit in us who is the hand, who does the job.  We have to make room for the hand so that every finger is filled.”
