I read somewhere recently that “enthusiasm” means filled with God.
What is it like to be God-Filled? To feel that warm light brimming inside of you. You can hardly sit down, you are so excited!!
Enthusiasm is fueled by love. Or something akin to it. Your heart is embracing whatever it is you’re enthusiastic about.
It is certainly warm and has a bit of the bubbly to it. You’re not just “up for it,” you’re enthusiastic about it! It even sounds like you’re in that fun and active state. As in athletic / enthusiastic.
Enthusiasm flows abundantly. It over flows and sparkles. It lights you up, brings a glow to your face. Watch for it . . . it can be contagious and will easily stick to whatever it touches.
It’s very hard to be still when your enthusiasm is kicked up. You’re eager to get started or get back to it. You just love it!
You’re filled with love for what you’re enthusiastic about, that’s for sure. And you’re not usually concerned with whether it’s good or bad. Or any such dualistic thoughts. Your enthusiasm keeps you connected to the present moment.
It’s surely stuffed full of God!
