Purple Passion
That is just to protect my art from internet pirates who roam the internet seas. AAARGH! Passion means a strong emotion that is barely controllable. It can mean an intense liking or love for something, such as a passion for art, or a passion for a certain someone.
The passion also refers to the sufferings of Christ between the night of the Last Supper and his death. It is hard to imagine the thoughts that were going through Jesus's mind as he faced the final night of his life. He knew exactly what was about to take place. He had been born for it. It began in the Garden of Eden and ended in the Garden of Gethsemene. It started with the Tree of Knowledge and ended with the cross that became our tree of life. It started with the first Adam and ended with the second Adam. It started with Adam's rebellion. It ended with the second Adam's obedience unto death. Jesus knew what he had to face. The last night of his life, His disciples and he sang the Hallels, which are sung during each Passover Seder. Knowing He was about to be crucified, He still sang with great passion... This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 Jesus great passion was to pay for our sins with His own life, so that we may have eternal life. What is your passion? For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. -John 3:16 |
