Passion
Recently I read a statement made by Perry Noble (who is the senior pastor at my church), “Do not apologize for your passion...ever”. Which got me really thinking, what am I truly passionate about and what impact is it making on my life. If you spend more than five minutes with me it becomes pretty clear what I am passionate about...Jesus Christ and the Florida Gators! I have always jokingly said it’s Jesus #1 and the Gators #1a, but in reality we all let our hobbies and families and jobs and relationships become our #1 passion. You can’t deny what you are passionate about, it just shows, whether you intend for it to or not. If you were to ask someone to tell you what your passion is, what would they say? Would it be the answer you want it to be? If not, what changes in your life need to be made? In the book of Matthew, Jesus says the most important commandment is to love the Lord with all your heart and mind. It’s impossible to do that if your passion is anywhere else other than Him.
