a response to Richard Rolle's The Spiritual Flame:
Flame of love burn bright in me
Consume my earthly fears
Restore to me passion and purity
Light the way as I go
Be to me the obsession of my life
Let me not turn away
May all I do and all I say
Come from this place of burning love
Refresh my heart, renew my mind
Keep me ever focused and true
Put Your heart within mine
Let them burn as one
Do not abandon me to my desires
My life is in Your hands
Draw my eyes to Your heart of fire
Envelope me, O Flame

Heather, this is such a beautiful poem. Your desire to be inflamed and impassioned with God's love is felt in every word you write. I believe that God will grant this desire to know and sense him more deeply.
