Ignite a Fire

Wednesdays in the Word

I love how The Message puts this verse in Matthew 3:

[Jesus] will ignite the kingdom life within you, a fire within you, the Holy Spirit within you, changing you from the inside out.

That's what I want.   He lit a fire within me when He radically touched my life 20 years ago.  But I want that fire to stay fresh...and I want to be continually changed from the inside out.

Lord, please ignite a fresh fire within all of us.  Holy Spirit, fill us anew.  And please, change us from the inside out, that we may be more like You.  Less of ME, more of YOU.
