Perfect Score

I went for an interview today. There were many questions asked and some of them concerned matters that I was tempted to lie about. I had to answer the questions that dealt with my personal walk with Jesus. I gave my most honest response, and I realized that I am not doing too well as far as my personal devotions are concerned. My heart is filled with worries about the prevailing circumstances and about the future that seems so uncertain. There are many open ends in front of me and there doesn’t seem to be a set and secure future ahead. In my own eyes, I did not achieve a perfect score.

I was asked the question that I like the least; and that concerned the direction of my passions both now and in future. If I was to be offered a good sum in form of a salaried job, would I take it or would I still desire to serve God using my gifts? This was strange because I have been trying to answer that question in the past few days. What would I do if I didn’t have to be paid for it?

I would like to pose the same question to you. In which direction do your passions lie? What would you do with your life, if money wasn’t an issue? What would you gladly do for free for the rest of your life? If you know the answer to this question, are you doing that thing presently? Or are you waiting for the day when you will have enough money in the bank to release yourself to pursue your true passion?
