Purify Your Passions

Psalm 62:8  "Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah."

Are you a passionate person? Generally, women are more passionate then men. We can be full of fire, life and emotion. We FEEL things intensely. We LOVE with fervency. Sometimes our passion can get the best of us. Our passion and zeal can sometimes lead us to depression, anger or gossip. We desire to pour out the fervency inside of us but the key is that we first need to pour out all that is in our hearts in PRAYER. That is the secret!
When we take our hearts that are filled with passion and emotion and pour it out DAILY before the Lord in prayer we are able to then be emptied of ourselves and filled with His Spirit. Intimacy with Him FIRST will put our emotions and passions in their proper place and we can be free of the bondage our passions can sometimes bring.
