Passion to Purpose

One of the huge mistakes people make is that they try to force an interest on themselves. You don't choose your passions; your passions choose you.

— Jeff Bezos —

Have you ever taken the time to write down what you are passionate about?  I’m not talking about a person, place or thing.

The passion I’m talking about is an activity or concept you have a strong liking and/or desire for or a healthy devotion toward.  Our passions come alive when we are doing work where our God-given strengths and gifts are combined with our life experiences.

In chasing our passion we often find our purpose and Frederich Buechner describes purpose quite eloquently as the place where your deep gladness meets the world’s needs.

Maybe 2020 is a year for you to chase a personal passion…I have a feeling the world is waiting for you.

1 Peter 4:10, “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace::  (ESV)
