"I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes my hair my face
Man I aint getting nowhere just sitting in a dump like this
Theres something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is
You cant start a fire, you cant start a fire without a spark"
How many time have you looked at yourself in the mirror and wanted to change everything. Not just your appearance but your surroundings and everything that is in your life? You felt as if you were spinning your wheels sitting around getting no where. You knew there was something going on out there somewhere, and you wanted to be apart of it.
Well in the great words of Burce Springsteen, "You cant start a fire without a spark!"
There are actually many ways to start a fire:
- Rub sticks together
- Strike a rock containing iron
- Use a magnifying glass
- Strike a match (duh)
- And it's even said that it can be done with a coke can and chocolate!
So apparently there are many natural ways to start a physical fire, but what about an inward fire? A fire that you can feel on the inside that seems like it's just burning out of control until you do something about it? A fire that says "There's something happening somewhere baby I know there is!"
Matthew 3:11(in the Bible!) says that Jesus will baptize with the holy spirit and with fire. Fire is a pretty amazing thing. If you want to see people start to move and make something happen, just like the old saying goes, "light a fire under them." Jesus realized that we all needed a little something extra to get us going, so he prepared exactly what Matthew 3:11 said.
I don't know about you, but there is a fire inside of me that is saying "There's something happening somewhere baby I know there is!" So here's what I'm saying, "You can't start a fire without a spark." No matter what area of your life you need a fire in, figure out the best means to get a spark. I'm encouraged to realize once again that it only takes a spark to start a fire.
There's something happening out there somewhere baby and I'm on my way!
It only takes a spark...
