LESSON 3
" PASSION INSPIRES PEOPLE TO FOLLOW "
There is not a greater influencer than passion . When a leader has passion , it attracts like minded people and can create an unstoppable momentum with your team in order to see your vision come to pass . Passion often times get extinguished or never fully develops in some leaders . Want to know why ? Often as leaders we do not have the patience to wait for the very best that God has to offer . We see something that is good , and it catches our eye and we grab hold of it , only to realize later that it wasn ’ t all we thought it would be . If you really want to create passion , chase the things that catch your heart . Pursue what sets your soul on fire . Life is too short not to live a passionate life .
Life is full of obstacles that everyone faces . Being a leader means you should model and message the correct behaviors . Passion can create that momentum needed to overcome any obstacle . Those you lead must see you full of life and energy . I love how the book of Hebrews views Jesus ’ last few moments and how he endured the pain and agony . Hebrews 12:2 ( TPT ) states , “ His example is this : Because his heart was focused on the joy of knowing that you would be his , he endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation , and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God !” -
