Fire,
fire that burns the chaff away,
fire that refines
the rough ore into shining metal,
fire that transforms darkness into light,
fire that empowers,
power of the living God
falling like tongues of fire
to kindle in those gathered
the fire of your love,
Spirit,
Breath of God
transforming the world
touching our lives anew,
each day
a new Pentecost
to those who welcome you.
Breathe in us, Holy Spirit,
and let us be transformed
by the power of your touch
into children of the living God.
Susan E. Stone, 2005
