Fire is a wonderful gift providing light, warmth and makes possible so many good and beneficial things. Our desires are no less a beautiful gift from God, and they too give precious meaning to so much in this life. But desire, like fire, must be managed properly. Let loose both can consume and destroy all that was given for our enjoyment. The hearth of gratitude is a safe way to enjoy everything.
“For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving.” 1Tim.4.4 Conversations Within” ts 3/28/
