The word “enthusiasm”
comes from the Greek word “entheos.”.
“Theos” is God. When
you’re enthusiastic, it simply means you are full of God.
When
you get up in the morning excited about your future, recognizing that day is a
gift and go out with a spring in your step, pursuing your goals and passionate
about life, then God will breathe in your direction. Studies even tell us that
people who are enthusiastic get better breaks. They’re promoted more often.
That’s not a coincidence. When you’re full of passion, you have the favor of
God.
Remember,
God didn’t breathe His life into us to drag through the day. He didn’t create
us in his image, crown us with his favor, and equip us with his power to just
go through the motions of life. You may have had some setbacks, the wind may
have been taken out of your sail, but this is a new day! God wants to breathe
new life back into you. If you’ll get your fire back, get your passion back,
the wind will start blowing once again.
When
you’re in agreement with God, He can cause the winds of favor to shift in your
direction!
So have faith, because without faith we have nothing!
