KEEPER OF THE FLAME
There is a primitive tribe located deep in the South American jungles. Anthropologists learned the most important and honored job in the tribe was the “keeper of the flame.” Since fire is so precious, and takes such effort to recreate, one member is entrusted with the responsibility of keeping the flame alive. During the night, the flamekeeper adds wood to the fire. In the rain he must protect it; when the tribe moves, he keeps it alive. His is a vital task. Christ has called us to be the keepers of His flame. We are to treat our office with the greatest respect and urgency. From The Seven Last Words of the Risen Christ, written by Joe E. Trull
