It's time for a new beginning (:

An analogy i came up with - don't worry it's not as weird as the pooping one. Haha. i realised i haven't been sharing stuff in a long time. My posts don't seem that... on fire anymore eh? Well i guess i've changed, so my posts won't totally be when like i was a baby christian, but the revelations do still come and God wants us to be a sea of galilee - flowing and full of life rather than a dead sea - full of minerals, but not flowing, Amen? Omg i just used FLOW two times in one sentence, AHHAAAA.

Yeah Okay so here's my fire analogy (: , shared it with someone already, but let's just type it out here, so that i can remember it too!!! I got this analogy after talking to chelsea about volcanos. (:p)

Like what we've been learning lately, we need the fire of the Holy Spirit to come upon us so that it will burn away things that are not pleasing to God. In real day context, when fire burns and burns, ash is left behind. What is ash? Something black, sooty, ugly on the outside, but also something that helps the land to grow, to produce a harvest and fruits. Sadly sometimes when we see the 'ash' the Holy Spirit fire has left behind, we only see the outside of it, we only see the trials, the tribulations, the hurts, the brokenness. But then again, we have to remember, what use is ash unless it is mixed with the harvest fields? Guys, you have to learn to accept the ash, let it mould into you, grow into you, mix into you, and after a season or two, a small little seedling would have grown into a huge tree of fruits, of miracles.

Yeah. never thought i'd love ash so much. Haha. After looking up at the dictionary. WA. realised, we all really do need that burning fire in us, not just in the aspect of producing ash, but look at this.

"fire verb [T] to heat objects made of clay in a kiln so that they harden"

So whats the fire for guys? It's to turn us from that soft.. mushy clay that can be dented or bent or even broken apart when someone (or the devil) touches it to BECOME a hard, ceramic, sturdy, strong object which God can use to display as a light, as His precious work in the Master Potter's ceramic shop... :p
