"The Christian must not be lukewarm."

Our God is a consuming fire. ~Hebrews 12:29

"The Christian must not be lukewarm. The Book of Revelation tells us that this is the greatest danger for a Christian: not that he may say no, but that he may say a very lukewarm yes. This being lukewarm is what discredits Christianity. Faith must become in us flame of love, flame that really fires up my being, becomes the great passion of my being, and so it fires also my neighbor."  ~Pope Benedict XVI, 10/9/12 Meditation at World Synod of Bishops

"Make me Thy fuel, O Flame of God!"
