Australia is having a time of it right now. It reminds me that here in Arizona we have had a ton of rain. Rain is good, gives us water to drink. Rain is bad, it causes lush growth which, in the heat of the summer, becomes tinder. The prediction for this summer: Lot's of wildfires.
Another kind of fire that I generally want more of is a fire in my soul. Faith is one of those things that, while I always have it, it waxes and wanes in a disconcerting manner.
There are times when the fire in my heart is so hot that I burn through life, and times when it is a grey lump of coal and I sort of sit there, feeling the ashes of my faith float away in the breeze.
I need to go read the Bible.
