I Never Cease to Smile in the Presence of Godly Passion.

I love people with a heart and passion for others. Nehemiah 4:14 "Don't be afraid of the enemy! Remember the Lord, who is great and glorious, and fight for your friends, your families and your homes!" I realize the context that Nehemiah was speaking in is very different than the one I like to equate it to but follow me. An enemy is your opposition, we shouldn't cannot be afraid of our opposition, whether that be Satan, the world, or ourselves. We must remember the Lord who is great and glorious! It is in the sight of the Lord and through the embrace of His intimacy that we are stirred to fight for our friends, families, and homes.

This verse inspires me greatly! It literally makes me smile. It gives me hope for humanity. It's not the words though that make me tingle inside, it's you. All of you who are chasing the Lord and remembering Him in every aspect of life. All of you who are fighting for those you love, whether you know those people or not. As the body of Christ we have the ability to intercede. Through prayer we can call out to God in a fighting cry for others. Through action we can personally and physically intervene in the lives of others. I'm encouraged by those of you who have a passion for others, you are the hope of this world. I originally wanted to start a blog called "Death Cause" which would be a blog that spotlighted people who are wildly passionate about great causes in life and willing to die for those causes but then I realized the average passionate person isn't out doing things that are flashy and "noteworthy" they are just living their life loving people. There are some amazing organizations out there that I personally need to look more into and endorse but behind them all are amazing people that I need to support through prayer.

I LOVE PEOPLE! Plain and simple. I wish we could all do as my good friend Aimee says and, "love others professionally," how sweet would that be?
