In the Fire 🔥

I am in the Fire. 

& Have been for over a year. 

My Uncle is a pastor and he has this sermon that is famous (to me :).

It’s about WHEN you are going through tough times that you are in the Fire. It’s not, IF it’s WHEN. 

We ALL go through trials. We are all in the Fire in one way or another. A year and a half ago I was getting 5 degree burns by the flames. 

I was Fire. 

There was no ending between me and my trials. All I was, was a burning melting being. It was while in the Fire that we decide who we will be. If we try to escape the Fire we will not get the much needed lessons. Worse yet, sometimes we might have to repeat the same Fire. 

I made a conscious choice that I was never going to repeat that same Fire again. I walked through the terrifying flames. Only to ask to be reborn and rebuilt in a newer more evolved way. 

My Uncle’s sermon talks about how we can get a bronze medal or gold or silver depending upon how we choose to behave while in the Fire. 

I stayed put. I understood that I needed to melt in order to get my gold. 

Today, What stage are you in the Fire? We are ALL in the Fire. Are you in the beginning, burning and being tortured?!! Or at the end, being set into place. 

The image of the 3 fires have kept me grounded and sane this past year and a half. I never felt the urge to write about it until now. Check out the text I sent to my fellow. 

Pretty fantastically engulfed 🔥🔥🔥!
