Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

The refining fire, the fire of Pentecost
the fire guiding the people by night
fire burning, not consuming the burning bush
speaking to the prophets, the leaders, the peoples
flames, light, warmth, comfort of the presence of God
testing fire, the furnace of our lives, trials,
all part of the story of God, of the people called
the people of the faith, of his sheepfold
the servants called to service, the ones called
to be his hands, his feet, his reflection
carried by the spirit out to the ends of the earth
fire burning, purifying, sanctifying our days
moving us closer, we pray, to our calling
to be Christ to those we meet
to guide our steps, in the journey of life
