What Are You Passionate About?
8
Passion, it lies in all of us,
sleeping...waiting...and though sometimes
unwanted...unbidden... it will stir...open its
jaws and howl. It speaks to us...guides us...
passion rules us all, and we obey.
9
What other choice do we have? Passion is the
source of our finest moments. The joy of love...
the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of
grief. It hurts sometimes more
10
than we can bear. If we could live without
passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace... but
we would be hollow... ( J. Whedon)

The Holy Spirit

• The fruit of the Holy Spirit is love.
• The gifts of thr Holy Spirit are to be shared
  with love.
• The Holy Spirit perfects love in us.

I John 413-1913 We know that we live in Him and
He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.
14 And we have seen and testify that the Father
has sent
17
His Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 If
anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God,
God lives in him and he in God. 16 And so we
know and rely on
18
the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever
lives in love lives in God, and God in him. 17
In this way, love is made complete among us so
that we will have confidence on the day
19
of judgment, because in this world we are like
him. 18 There is no fear in love. But perfect
love drives out fear, because fear has to do with

20
punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect
in love. 19 We love because he first loved us.
