Keep the Fires Burning

“A fire shall continually burn on the altar” – Leviticus 6:6

We are all called into holy service.
Keep the fires burning.
Lift up your visions,
Give voice to your passions,
     Don’t be deterred by fear or doubt,
Keep the fires burning.

Name your gifts,
Bring forward your beauty,
     Don’t be stopped by guilt or shame,
Keep the fires burning.

Listen deeply.
Open your hands.
Feel your feet on solid ground.
We are here to offer ourselves
For the benefit of each other.
Keep the fires burning.

-- Rabbi Yael Levy
