As God's redeemed people, we must approach all given assignment and endeavour with ardent enthusiasm, bubbling with great excitement and passionately sharing the good news of our faith. Without enthusiasm, our churches, our families, and all act of sacrifice will languish in the tepid water of mediocrity. When we are fired up with godly enthusiasm, life will take on a new zest, deeper interest and greater meaning. Sustained enthusiasm is a precursor to attaining excellence in any given assignment. The person with enthusiasm lives abundantly in spite of and not because of his situation. The worst bankrupt in the world is the man who has lost his enthusiasm. The fire of God in your heart will melt the lead in your feet.
