We have all heard where there is smoke there is fire.  Fire when controlled can be used for all kinds of good things.  Yet when left to get out of control it can destroy nearly everything it touches.  It all comes down to what the person in control of the flame has decided to use it for.  I believe we all have a fire deep inside and our thoughts are the fuel for that fire.  We have the ability to control our thoughts,  but far to-often we let others feed our fire.  We never stop to think that the fire within them may not be a controlled burn.  My hope for this channel is that it speaks life, and hope into you.  

That you focus on  whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-- think about such things  Philippians 4:8

I hope when thoughts of anything not listed in the verse above enter our heads we can remember it is just smoke from that fire and will soon be gone.
