Yummy. :)

Ahh the sweet taste of the first fruits of a mighty harvest. Though it be just a taste, but a drop of nectar on your tongue, you know the tree from whence it came is real and great. You are aware of what awaits after that first taste. For it was because of God, only, that you were put in the position to receive that taste. It wasn't on your own that you found this opened this door. It wasn't by chance that this came to be. It is a holy thing. It's after this first taste that you realize your true purpose as a child of God. The passion that you have requested is poured out in an overflow beyond explanation. Your purpose as a Christian is revealed, and, at that moment, nothing else in life matters. It's now that the lives of the people around you become the most important things. Their salvation suddenly becomes your top priority, and out of no where, a love, greater than your own, surges through and out of you in their direction. Your joy begins to spread amongst the lot of them, and a small light begins to ignite in their lives. When this is seen by you, you are overcome with emotion that you cannot contain, and can only be released through praise. You are overwhelmed because you know this tiny drop of nectar is not even close to the beginning of the harvest that will soon proceed. This drop, this beginning, it renews your hope. It renews your faith in revival, and sets you in a direction where only more will be achieved. You only pray that your passion continues, and that your desire for revival to ensue consumes you continually. You open up, with this first taste, the floodgates of apples, oranges, bananas, and other fruits that are so surely to soon meet you in your path. :)
