Flood This Holy Place
by Sally Hanan My Master wants me; the skilled craftsman. He wants my hands to fashion the sacred candlestick for His flame. It is to burn continually: day and night forevermore. He says it is to be fashioned from one lump of gold. He says it is possible. This lamp will be hammered out of pure gold beaten and molded into one central branch, from which the other 6 branches will spread out and upward. An open almond blossom shall be on every branch. All 7 branches will be topped with an almond flower - the petals opened to host the oil lamp cups that will inundate the Holy Place with light. My master wants me; He is the skilled Craftsman. He wants His hands to fashion this sacred candlestick for His flame. His blood has made me holy, sacred, set apart for His flame. It is to burn continually: day and night forevermore. The Light of Israel will become a fire, their Holy One a flame.* He says I am to be fashioned from one lump of gold. I am seen as gold, refined by the fire? He says it is possible. This lamp will be hammered out of pure gold beaten and molded into one central branch, from which the other 6 branches will spread out and upward. I know that one branch. His name is Jesus. Beaten and molded for me, as I am molded into Him to become one with Him- as He is one with His Father. An open almond blossom shall be on every branch. The fruit lies on the branches that are grafted into Your vine; the branches reach outward to others and upward to You. I cannot, shall not, bloom or grow without You. All 7 branches will be topped with an almond flower - the petals opened to host the oil lamp cups that will inundate the Holy Place with light. Oh my Lord! Make me your host. Fill me with your pure oil and place your wick in me, then set me on fire! Flood this holy place with light, and may it never ever ever ever die until I reach the eternal light of Your everlasting glory. Amen. *Isaiah 10:17 (C) Sally Hanan Sally is an Irish writer who now lives in the U.S. with her family. Her husband calls her beautiful, talented and brilliant.
