One great example of this is when the Apostle Paul writes to a younger guy named Timothy, encouraging him to “fan into the flame” the gift of God. He is telling Timothy not to let the flames of passion dim by remembering what set him ablaze spiritually to begin with.
What about you? What are you passionate about? And what got you passionate about it to begin with?
What is that thing that when it comes to your attention it ignites inside of you with tears or with anger. And on the flipside, what gets your feathers ruffled?
Imagine if it's not about God calling you to the things that you are passionate about... what if He makes you passionate about the things that you are called to?
Henri Frederic Amiel said, “Without passion man is a mere latent force and possibility, like the flint which awaits the shock of the iron before it can give forth its spark.”
What is your reason for not living out your passion?
We urge you to give God your heart completely, leaving just an empty place … and then see what He fills it with and let that fire becoming consuming and contagious!
