No matter how beautiful or sophisticated an automobile is, it will never be in motion unless it is fueled. Cars were built to run on fuel, and until that is done nothing else will make them function normally. The engine will not even start, talk less of moving; every one knows that. What every one does not know however is that in life, in order to advance meaningfully, there is a need to fuel your passion. That is the focus of my teaching today.
Everybody was born with a passion for one thing or the other. Unfortunately, many people are yet to discover in full their area of passion but that notwithstanding, they still do have latent passion for something waiting to be discovered.
What is passion?
Passion is defined as the object of somebody’s intense interest or enthusiasm. This talks about what touches or moves you to the very core of your being. It is what you always act on or react to every single time you are confronted with it. Passion is what drives you; it is what you will do even without remuneration! And it is a pointer to where your fulfillment lies in life. If you are yet to discover yours, ask God to show you what it is, do some soul searching as well to see what elicits the greatest fervor in you and trust God to help you turn your passion into reality.
Jesus was the epitome of passion. He displayed his passion towards the house of God, underscoring His assignment of establishing God’s kingdom on earth and purging the temple (both physically and spiritually) of all forms of uncleanness.
“And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise.
And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.” (John 2:16 -17 ) (more…)
