consuming Fire, fan into Flames,
a passion for Your Name.


Fire;
(extracted from dictionary.com & wikipedia)
A state, process, or instance of combustion in which fuel or other material is ignited and combined with oxygen, giving off light, heat, and flame.
Fire is the heat and light energy released during a chemical reaction, in particular a combustion reaction.

Flame;
(extracted from wikipedia)
A flame is the product of a highly exothermic reaction.
It is the visible (light-emitting) part of a fire.
A flame is made up of glowing gas particles given off by a burning substance; it is not just energy.
The color and temperature of a flame are dependent on the type of fuel.



Consuming Fire, fan into Flame;
God is the Consuming Fire. He acts on whatever's available in people willing to respond to Him, be it abilities or inadequacies. Change is vital therefore, and it is active - highly exothermic. Yet the energy for change is God the Fire, not us.
Be not disappointed then, but be hopeful and joyful, if you are the visible flames of the Fire, radiating its glory. The flame is dependent on energy from the Fire in this aspect. It doesnt mean all flames are the same however, instead the type of flame is established according to the substance present in it.
In a nutshell, it takes the energy and substance to ignite the flame.

Men need God.
