Fire—a destructive and terrorizing force. Even more terrorizing than this force, is this force without bounds, with no limits or restrictions—wild.Though we have been taught to mourn the ground zero left behind from a wildfire, nature knows that its destruction has purpose: through ruin, new life can grow. All that was old in the previously strangled forest is broken down to its smallest form, soaked and sown into the soil, then stronger, fire-resistant vegetation rises from the ashes of its past. To the unconnected, wildfire is devastating. Yet to those who seek the depths of destruction’s meaning, wildfire is the rebirth of all things beautiful. To become fire-proof, the old must die, the ashes must nurture the soil, and life must be born again.

Awhile back, I had a rambunctious mentor spew out the words “I see you.” It meant so little to who said it because the words belonged to someone much greater… and they were meant to be the first blow to my carefully constructed and fragile self-worth. Somewhere along the way of internalizing the Gospel, I picked up the belief that I was not good enough in raw form. And with that, my value became measurable, meaning I believed I held the power—or weakness—to increase and decrease what I was worth.
