The fire that burns in the devotee's heart for God is used in three ways: as a light of worship, bringing awareness to God's omnipresence; as the warmth of generosity, serving God in all; and as the fire of self-discipline, casting into the fire of self-restraint those thoughts, words, and actions that are not useful to the soul's expression.
Rev. Ellen Grace O'Brian
