Spiritual Fire


Isaiah 6:6-8

A seraphim flew unto me having a lit coal,
Taking it from the altar to light my soul;
Laying it upon my mouth to touch my lips,
My sin is purged as iniquity looses grips;
I heard the Lord ask, "Who shall I send?"
In response I said, "Here I am.I'll tend."
A calling from God, have you ever heard?
Go to far away places to spread the Word;
A little absurd as this might sound to you,
But for many I'll say that it is very true;
Maybe no angel put hot coal on their face,
But assuring they got a Heavenly embrace;
In feeling a spiritual fire blazing within,
Cleanse their body of all iniquity and sin;
Our God Almighty has it for us in His plan,
Tasks to perform for each woman and man;
Some time in the future to you He might ask,
"Are you willing for performing this task?"
As He would then ask, "Who'll go for us?"
Will you say, "Send me!" or make a fuss?
