From the Prayer To Be All In

…O Breath of Fire,
We are charged with fire to lie down in Fire.
Not removed, but all in,
not dismissive but embracive
that we might experience the revelation—
of You moving and compelling us,
of the full immersion in the Flowing fire,
of the flames of passion and compassion. Amen.
