Passions of the Heart!
There are no better people to be around than thosewho have a zest for life and a joy in theirhearts. Few as there may be, when you meet one youjust know it. There's something about them thatdraws you inward, some call it a persons,"Persona", I believe God would call it your,"Passion." Some say you are just born with thatinner balance and security that is so magnetic. David was one of those people that had that hungerfor life. It didn't matter if he was herdingsheep, slaying a lion, or killing giants withslingshots, David had it, and all around him newit. They were drawn to him, the bible even statesthat "David was a man after God's own heart." Butmore importantly it was what he knew he held inhis heart. It bigger than life, a higher callingso to speak, and anything David came up againstcould defeat him. In his heart he new that withthe Lord almighty nothing was impossible. " I cando all things through Christ who strengthensme."Phil. 4:13. Even more so than David was a man called Jesus whodemonstrated a life full of passion. So much sothat he was willing to lay down his life for hisbeliefs in his heart. He also had it, and peoplenew it. There is an old saying that says, we are only asgood as those we hang around. In other words, ifyou are a certain level tennis player and you onlyplay against people of your skill level you willnot be tested and your game will not improve. Thesame holds true in our Christian life. Havingaccountability partners, being in small groups orhanging around those that are more matureChristians in their walk only helps our game orour own relationship with Christ. But even morefind someone who has it. One that has that Passionof the Heart that love for Christ and life.They're out there you just have to have a willingheart in order to find them. Psalms 73:28 "be itis good for me to draw near to God, I have put mytrust in the Lord God that I may declare all thyworks." There in lies the answer to "How can Ihave that Passion? How can I find those that haveit?" Draw nearer to God, trust in him. Greg Ryan is a best selling author of the Changing from the INSIDE OUT series.
