For The Glory

Since I started doing this forum it has been a labor of love for me because it is a way for me to get the things that are going on in my head out to the world. Primarily it is about how I am amazed at God and his creation every day. Needless to say it is also about how He speaks to me through his word. Today I want to quote from John Pipers book "Don't Waste Your Life". He says, " God's purpose for my life was that I have a passion for God's glory and that I have a passion for my joy in that glory, and that these two are one passion". He goes on to quote 1 Corinthians 10 verse 31 which says, " Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God". This to me says that whether I am cooking dinner for myself or friends, mowing my lawn, or going out for a walk I should be magnifying God. From Tracy

You know what strikes me is that we have passion. It is not enough to talk but not walk the Christian life.

Passion lets us do things with real conviction. My Christian experience needs to be on fire for God, and then passion is the natural result.
