zeal and passion are nothing, unless they are coupled with maturity and content.
sadly, its rare when zeal and passion became anything at all.
i sat at the same service, and heard the same sermon as everyone else; but somehow my reaction was so very, very different than the crowd.
spiritual extremism sounds so good on paper.
to give up all of one's dreams, goals, and aspiritions for the kingdom of God seems so noble at first.
but what if God gave you those dreams?
maybe i am just old and cynical.
maybe i didnt like the message because of being backsliden.
but, i am thinking that i became old, cynical and backsliden because of repeatedly giving up everything to follow God
and being led down a dead end road.
look, this is probably confusing. these thoughts are scrambled and disconnected.
so here is the short version of what my tired brain is trying to say:
we give up everything to be used of God, when it was God who gave us everything to use for Him.
