Keeping your passion for anything is hard. And it’s even harder to maintain your enthusiasm for a long period of time. So in life, we tend to go through cycles. It’s the same for our spiritual life. It’s like the old story of the tortoise and the hare. There are many who come to Christ and run a sprint, but then flame out.
One of the keys to maintaining spiritual passion is realizing the ups and the downs and plodding along. In others words, staying faithful and consistent while running the race with passion.
Study Hebrews 12:1-3 today...
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart."
