The Burning Heart

God is cool, and pretty direct sometimes when you really need/want Him to be. In my prayers today, I asked that He would set my heart on fire - among other things - but this was definitely a specific desire, prayer, question, longing, etc. And as soon as I finished praying I opened up Oswald directly to a page entitled: "The Burning Heart" that used Luke 24:32 as a reference: 'Did not our hearts burn within us?'

Nice.

I'll leave you with this....

"We cannot kindle when we will
The fire which in the heart resides,
The spirit bloweth and is still,
In mystery our soul abides;
But tasks in hours of insight will'd
Can be through hours of gloom fulfill'd."

-O. Chambers
