A passion to obey God doesn’t come naturally.  Salvation may spark love and a desire to please Him, but a passionate fire is built slowly from the timbers of spiritual knowledge, faith, and devotion.

From Romans 6:22-23:  “But now that you have been freed from sin and enslaved to God, the fruit you have leads to sanctification, and the end is eternal life.  For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
