"Through the Fire"

October 2021

When you walk through fire you shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you.
For I am the Lord your God...
Isaiah 43: 3-4

True story: while writing "Forgotten," I wanted to use Isaiah 43 as a theme for Gemini. "I have called you by name" - and she's having an identity crisis. "I have redeemed you" - and she's discovering her need for forgiveness. But as I kept going... "You will walk through the fire and you shall not be burned" ...and as an Igne Aravasti, Gemini heals super fast from fire and so she appears to not get burned. It all fits so well; it's like this verse was written for her!

...and all of us, too :) Just maybe not in a healing-from-burns-really-fast-because-you're-an alien kind of way.
