“…not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord…” – Romans 12:11 (NKJV)

As we serve the Lord doing whatever He has given us to do, we must keep our passion going for it. It’s this same passion that keeps us going when it seems too much or ‘fruitless’. There are many times of testing and of stretching when we are serving the Lord.

There have been many times like these in my own life when I felt like there wasn’t a whole lot of progress being made in what I was doing for the Lord, when  I wanted to be moving on and doing more. Sometimes I even felt as if I wasn’t making much difference despite how hard I was working. But the “fire” (passion) I had within me, kept me going and kept me moving forward. Keep the fire burning within you as you serve the Lord, no matter how frustrating it can be at times. You’re making a difference and God sees your efforts and will bless you!
