Pentecost: A Fire for us to Feed
The Lord said: "I will pour out my Spirit on all people"
and so the mighty wind swept through all the house.
The people, each one, were filled with the Holy Spirit.
It was a fulfillment of promise
that the young would see visions
and the old would dream dreams.
The flames of love would come to them
and they would prophesy
and be glad
and rest in hope.
The God of love lit the fires
as a promise to fill us with the Spirit.
We would be offered the choice
to fan the flames in our lives
to bring more fuel to keep
the fires burning
and the light shining
and the warmth to gather round;
each one of us without exception.
