Passion is such an important part of who we are. We all have it deep within us. We just need to let it come out. During one of my late night talks with God I felt Him stirring in me the importance of passion. Without passion, life is dull and pointless. We have nothing to live for and no motivation to live for something significant.
Generally, when you are passionate about something you spend a lot of time thinking about it or doing something about it. For instance, someone who loves (or is passionate about) music will practice constantly and even be thinking about songs they can write/new music to learn as they go throughout their day. People invest time in what their passions.
What if we took passion to a whole new level? What about becoming completely passionate about God and making the same time for Him as we do for earthly fancies? God will transform your life. You will be so full of God that everything you do becomes about glorifying Him.
After we let ourselves become wholly His, He will use the desires and passions in our heart. The passion for music, baking, parenting, or any other desire in your heart (if pure) is from God. God has put those dreams in our heart and wants to use them, but we have to make it about Him first.
"When we are wholly His we will be more ourselves than ever."
~C.S Lewis
Once we have wholly submitted to His ways we will have the tools needed for the passions He has put in our heart.
