ADD ANOTHER LOG 563
This evening, as we sit
before the fireplace, we will
occasionally have to rise up
and place another log on
the fire.
And so it is with our spiritual life.
If we want the flames of the Gospel
to grow and glow in our lives,
we must continually be willing to add
new logs to the flames.
It is very difficult to keep a fire going
with last week's burnt logs.
And if there is to be any real warmth
to our glow, there must be fresh prayer,
faith, trust and service added daily to
our lives.
