The Flame of Christ in My Heart

Open my eyes to Your light, open my heart to Your love, open my spirit to Your purpose.

Fill me with life, Lord. Fill me with love, Lord. Fill me with purpose. Make of me whatever You wish, Jesus. I want to be only what You want me to be.

Transform me, Jesus. Elevate me. Allow me to see more, allow me to feel more. Do not allow me to stray from the path, do not allow me to forget You, do not allow me to fail in Your mission, Lord.

It is no longer I alone, but Christ who lives in me. Christ is my strength, Christ is my life, Christ is the light in my heart.

I want to feed this fire so that I never allow it to weaken again. I want this fire to burn like a blazing flame of love. You are the tree of life, the precious flame of love, the fire that gives life, the light of our souls.

Make my prayers not merely words, but the expression of what is felt in the heart.
