Many mystics talk about God as the living flame within each of us.

There is an interesting story about two of the Desert Fathers, Abba Lot and Abba Joseph:Abba Lot went to see Abba Joseph and said to him, “Abba, as far as I can, I say my little office. I fast a little. I pray. I meditate. I live in peace. And as far as I can, I purify my thoughts. What else can I do?” Then the old man stood up, stretched his hands towards heaven, and his fingers became like ten lamps of fire. And he said to him, “If you are willing, you can become all flame.”

I believe the flame is Divine Love. Why not become all flame?

Set your intention to mature in love.

Love burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. (Song of Songs 8:6)
