There is a flame that burns at the core of my being.
A light that flickers there—the energy that is God emanates and
radiates from this place.
Pulsing, strong and bright
it glows and grows when focused through the lens of a life that
chooses
to see and know and be.
O flame of Life, Burn in and as me.
Fill my being with Your radiance.
Shine away the darkness which obscures my vision.
You are the Light of the world, the Light at the very center of Life.
You are the Light at the core of me,
The Light by which I see and move and Be.
So it is!
