FIRE!!!!!!!

Post  smije on Sun Jan 18, 2009 10:39 pm

Fire is fun. There's actually a devotional book called "Burn this Book" and once you read it and answer all the personal questions you're supposed to burn it. Our missions teams is going to read it for our upcoming missions trip in June and I'm super excited.

Anybody else like fire??? It is actually used a lot in the Bible to symbolize passion, God's presence, leading, etc...

That's some good stuff. Fire is also used to to symbolize cleansing. It is used to burn up all the unnecessary "junk" in our lives. There are a lot of cool things we can learn from studying about fire in the Bible.
Your book sounds pretty interesting, too. Are you going on the missions trip with the team? If so, where are you going?

Yeah, my blog is actually entitled "through the flames: a walk through God's refinery" so I kinda know about cleansing and stuff. I like the part in the Bible where it tells about the alter where the junk that makes up our lives is going to be burned away and only what's done for God will last. It's really cool but kinda scary at the same time if you think about it.

Our missions trip is to Atlanta Georgia and it's with the youth groups from Saline AG and A3OG so it should be really fun. It's not a part of Ambassators in Missions but we're gonna have fun anyway and I'm really excited to get working on the book

1 Corinthians
12If any man builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13his work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. 14If what he has built survives, he will receive his reward. 15If it is burned up, he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames.

When we walk through life walking in his presence we are building our life with the best he has to offer! [gold] But live a life among sinful tendencies and you will be burned[Hay]. Fire can cleanse or can tear down it all comes down to if you're on the rock or not!
