Vision and Passion


Both vision and passion are necessary if we are to achieve anything of great importance.

To have vision without passion is like a fireman who gets a call that there’s a fire, and he gets out his map or gets out his SatNav, and plans out his trip, then sits back thinking the job is done.  Great vision, great planning, but no result.
To have passion and not vision is like the fireman who gets a call that there’s a fire, and he runs out to the truck, turns on the hose and sprays it all around the fire station.  It doesn’t matter how fast that water comes out, it will all be wasted and eventually it will run out.
We need vision so we know where we are going, and we need passion to motivate us to get there.  If we have both vision and passion, we can get to the fires, the fires of hell, and we can allow the Water of Life, the Passion of Heaven, to target those fires and make a difference where we can be most effective.
