Refined Fire (revised)

Illuminate me with the fire of Your Word

When You speak, You speak spoken words of purity

There is no flaw in You, no darkness can consume You

You are the Light and the Way to everlasting life

Edify my spirit of secrets yet unknown

As I search for You, on my calloused knees, broken in spirit and weeping before Your gleaming Presence...

May I find You

As a flame burns at a distance capturing all that is near...

so it is with Your glorified Shekinah diminishing the darkest of evils with its iridescence

Refined shall I be...

"...for He (You) has test me. I will come forth as gold." (Job 23:10)
