The Passion of Your Heart

What are you passionate about? Do you know that God usually gives us a heart for that which He is calling us to do? If He has placed certain passions in your life (for single moms, children, sports, teaching, etc.) that is usually an indicator of a programming God has placed in you that He desires to use at a later date.

It is so fascinating to read the account of David’s preparation for God’s use in Psalm 78:70—72 where we read “He also chose David His servant and took him from the sheepfolds; From the care of the ewes with suckling lambs He brought him to shepherd Jacob His people, and Israel His inheritance. So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart, and guided them with his skillful hands.”

This is right in line with God’s words to Jeremiah in Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.“

So, what are you passionate about? Give it some thought and I pray that you will come to discover what Pastor Rick Warren notes, “We serve God out of design & not out of duty.”
