The man quickly hitched his horses to the plow and made several furrows in the form of a large circle around his home. Then he set fire to the dry grass within the circle and burned it clean. The roaring, terrifying demons of the prairie, giant tongues of leaping flames, charged down upon that home. But when it struck the furrows and the ground already burned over, it swirled round the circle and went on its devastating way. The farmer and his family, his house and barns, his machinery and stock, were saved. The fires of God's wrath against sin burned over Calvary, where you and I may gather around the cross of Jesus, safe from the fires, of destruction. Begin your march to heaven at the cross of Calvary. Keep close to the cross and to its Christ all the way you journey. Lloyd W.
