YOU WERE MADE FOR PASSIONATE LOVE! CHRISTIAN, IF YOUR TANK IS EMPTY, THE IT'S TIME TO GET FILLED AGAIN. "Passion," "zeal," enthusiasm," and "wholeheartedness" are words that accurately describe how Jesus Christ's life was given for the Father's glory. "My food," said Jesus, "is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work." The prophecy, "Zeal for your house will consume me," perfectly portrayed Christ's passion in serving His Father. Jesus' passionate love for the Father was the fuel was the fuel that drove Him forward. This book is written to assist believers in embracing the same passion, to "see" Him as He is, thereby being transformed to love extravagantly, which will result in a life lived to the fullest in outrageous obedience to God.

Life is full of change, actually the only thing that is constant in life is change. Joseph Griffin experienced many ups and downs in his emotional, spiritual and physical life and wrote about them very transparently, realizing all of us on planet earth are very much the same. He was an avid reader of God's Word and actually read through the Bible five times during the past year. As he read, he began to realize God's hand in all of his own life and wanted the nuggets of truth found therein to be an inspiration, blessing and encouragement to others who may read.We all face storms...that's just "life," but the thread running through this entire book is captured in his very last writing, completed less than 15 hours before he went home to be with the Lord: "God's hand is stretched out still." Regardless of what goes on in our lives, regardless of changes that can leave us devastated at times and storms that seem to wreck havic, God is constant...He never changes and He remains faithful to those who come to Him with all their heart. He will hold you until, like Joseph, you touch His hand in Heaven. His Hand is stretched out still to you!

The early American landscape painters would often paint, in the background of their art, magnificent towering mountains. These beautiful mountains represented the power and majesty of God. Whatever the landscape, we are drawn to the great hope and protection found in God the Creator.Mountains have also been seen as having a special place to the understanding of the spiritual life. Both Moses and Jesus had important events on the mountain. "And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou may teach them." (Exodus 24:12) "And after he (Jesus) had taken leave of them, he went up on the mountain to pray. Immediately before choosing his twelve apostles." (Mark 6:46)In Japan, Mount Fuji is very much understood as a spiritual mountain for the Japanese. Mount Taylor in New Mexico is seen as a sacred mountain to the Navajo Nation. In almost every nation, there are mountains that call for the spiritual part of our life to lift our eyes unto the hills. Some take pilgrimages up the mountain. There is a sense of being closer to God, not so much in physical distance but in spiritual awareness.Mondays are the beginning of the week for secular life. Saturday and Sundays are marked as days of rest and worship. As some say, "we live for the weekends." And that leaves Monday as the culprit of ending our happy time. We are called back to our work, our labor, our schedules set by others. There is this feeling of beginning all over to make it to Friday. And yet, Monday is a day that God has given to us. It is a day that all of God's promises hold true for us. The word Monday came from an earlier English word for Moon. The Moon is essential for the immigration of birds and the impact of the ocean tides. It is the work of our Mondays to guide us into a new week. Just as our spiritual life is to guide us, so are the Mondays that we face. It really becomes an opportunity to adjust our secular understanding of Monday to a spiritual awareness that every day is a good day in God's realm.Mountain Monday is a simple way to express that God has made both the mountains and our Mondays for His glory and our good. It is just how we want to make the day. On a mountain or not, we are God's greatest love.Bruce Sloan

Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. -Ecclesiastes 12:13 ESVJesus offered us an abundant life. That life is not measured in the acquisition of earthly wealth and monetary gain. It does not include the promise of perfect physical health. It does not shield us from temptation. It does not guarantee that we are elevated in the sight of others. So, what is this abundant life?The abundant life is the experience of righteousness, peace, and joy found only on the other side of obedience to God. The Scriptures lay out our path in the form of principles and commands. Obeying God is choosing to seek life and blessings. Disobeying God is choosing death and curses. When we disregard His scriptural mandates, we should expect negative consequences. God's medicine is usually preventative in nature. He gives us guidance so we do not destroy ourselves and those we love. The good news? This information is available to us all!

A greater reality stands waiting for us. A reality with no end transcending the mind. We can only marvel and trust, and glorify God for the possibilities that lie beyond this life, a life of wonders.

Man will one day live forever in the presence of all mighty God. We will be at peace with one another, living in perfect harmony with our Creator. Until then, give praise to God for His creative work as presented through every book of God's inspired Word.
