• “It takes spiritual authority to bless others. Many Christians say, “God bless you,” but one clearly senses that although the words express a kind wish, they lack real spiritual authority.” – Basilea Schlink

O God of burning altar fire by Amy Carmichael

  • O God of burning altar fire,
    O God of love’s consuming flame,
    Make pure the flame of our desire
    To win the lost to seek Thy Name.
  • There is no coldness, Lord, in Thee,
    Oh, keep us kindled lest we bring
    To our dear Lord of Calvary,
    Dead ashes for our offering.
  • Dead ashes, husk of corn for wheat
    Lord of our consecration vow,
    We gather round Thy wounded feet,
    We see the thorn about Thy brow.
  • Oh, by Thy cross and passion, Lord,
    Grant us this plea, this sovereign plea,
    Save us from choosing peace for sword,
    And give us souls to give to Thee.

  • “Do not lose yourself in your everyday work and activities. Rather, lose yourself in God. When you are doing work, let your innermost heart be centered on Him. Live in His presence and abide in Him. Then your work will follow you into eternity, and you will reap a rich harvest.” – Basilea Schlink
