His Passion

Jn. 2:17  And it came to the minds of the disciples that the Writings say, I am on fire with passion for Your house. (BBE)

What are you passionate about?  What interest or cause excites you, consuming your time and attention?  For Jesus, that passion was for His Father's house.  Literally, a dwelling or temple but figuratively, a family, the church.  Us.  So much so, Scripture records that it consumed Him.  We drew His complete attention and affection.  WE are His passion!  A passion to which He devoted His entire life.  A passion so great that it led Him to the cross.  Being His disciples, let us also remember as they did.  Today, thank Him for the depth of His love for us (Jn. 15:13), the passion for us that burns within Him like a consuming fire.
