In the little world of our nature the presence of Jesus in reigning
power is as a fire to consume our lusts and melt our souls to obedience.
Sometimes we doubt the present of the Lord within, for he is concealed with
clouds, but we are again assured that he is within us when his light shines in
and fills us with holy fear, while at the same time the warmth of grace softens
us to penitence, resignation and obedience, as wax becomes soft in the presence
of fire.
