The fact that my passion for the lost pales in comparison to this youth pastor tells me I have a ways to go. Thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />One Heart -<br /><br />I certainly agree. I know that without God I can do nothing, but with God all things are possible. I believe that even includes my passion. Thanks for expanding on this.<br /><br />Blessings to both of you!Glory to Godhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11506057108573562163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179906308673539246.post-4211052697278960922010-07-15T16:20:16.939-05:002010-07-15T16:20:16.939-05:00Yes, indeed we are too comfortable at times, but I...Yes, indeed we are too comfortable at times, but I've come to see that I have no capacity apart from His grace, not even to hold on to Him. It is He who holds on to me and knows how to bring me out of my comforts and stir my passion. That is not to say that I am complacent remaining in a position of laziness but His very Spirit living in me won't let me go. What we can do is miss out on great opportunities of service here on earth--advancing His Kingdom and living on the way to living. Sadly most Christians are dying on the way to living and most unbelievers the other way around. Oh, Father, stir us up with passion and don't let us become too comfortable or lukewarm. This is the cry of my heart whenever I sense just a tad of complacency.<br /><br />As far as the passion in the youth minister, it is not so much age or the years on the journey that determine passion but as His Word says in Luke 7:47, "I tell you, her sins—and they are many—have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.” <br /><br />Thanks for sharing this.
