Passion. Passion. Passion.

            It’s something that’s so essential to life. No, I’m not talking about the hot, steamy one you feel for another person. I’m talking about the one that burns inside you for something; the one God places in your heart. A desire to do something because you love it, you’re good at it, and you want to use it to change the world. I believe my passion is writing and hey I just got a job where I’m paid to do it every day. (I’m a News Producer.) How exciting! But I also want to use my passion for God. So that’s why I’m here online and occasionally popping up on your social media feed telling you Jesus Rocks!
​
            I guess five years ago I knew a thing or two about passion. Amazing what God revealed to me as I was healing from a traumatic brain injury.

         So, looking back I surmise that I got total peace after I wrote for the Lord without shame. I still wonder about that last line I wrote. I no longer want to marry that person I was referring to but if I look at strictly the words maybe I can take that to say my spirit knows the exact person I’m going to marry? And as for the Jonas Brothers, I’m still holding out!
​
           In conclusion, I would encourage you to find your passion if you don’t know it already. The easiest way I can think to do this is with prayer. God is always listening and eager to strengthen the relationship you have with Him. Go ahead and tell me how it goes!

I really don't know my passion in life. Well actually lately I've been thinking that I do know and I have just suppressed it maybe?? Definitely going to pray and ask God to reveal to me what I should be doing in mt life and what's my passion. Good blog!! :)

Hey girl! Yea prayer is the first step and also maybe ask some people you trust what they think, they may see things in you that you don't see! Good luck, praying for you ;D

Marilyn! This is awesome. You are sowing seeds and I know that God is taking notice. I will be reading EVERYTHING you post b/c (I love you and) I belive in what your doing.

@Lauren D. Passion is your gift from God. It's been there from the beginning, which is sometime the reason it's hard to spot. Think about the thing that come really easy to you that others around you struggle with... that's it. He will not only give you a gift but He will also give you the tools/ people to help refine it. 2Corinthians 12 (*especially verse 18) is a good reference for this. Ask Him, He wants you to know. Believing with you!
