Zeal

Zeal is fervent, passionate enthusiasm or eager desire in pursuit of a goal, cause, or ideal. It represents intense devotion and energy, often used in religious or political contexts to describe dedicated, sometimes fanatical, effort. The term originates from the Greek zĂȘlos (jealousy, zeal), related to intense feeling.
There seems to be a lot of political zeal these days, no matter which way you lean.
I prefer to think I have the following zeal:
"Zeal for God and His cause moved the disciples to bear witness to the gospel with mighty power. Should not a like zeal fire our hearts with a determination to tell the story of redeeming love, of Christ and Him crucified? It is the privilege of every Christian, not only to look for, but to hasten the coming of the Saviour." ~Maranatha, p. 129, by E.G. White.
Are there any subjects or causes for which you are zealous?
Thank you for joining me on this journey through the alphabet. I hope you have a lovely day.
