Kaelin Scott's Blog: Faithful Mommy - Posts Tagged "passion"

Being an author, artist, or entrepreneur of any kind is a lot like wearing your heart on your sleeve. You pour yourself into a product, devoting endless time and energy to making it perfect, then you bravely put yourself out there for all to see. It’s exciting and wonderful, but also terrifying. It’s hard not to feel personally rejected when people show no interest in what you’ve worked so hard to create. It’s hard not to get your hopes up too high, and even harder to have them dashed to the ground.

But you can’t ever give up. If God placed a passion or dream in your heart, it would be wrong not to pursue it. Whether you reach a million people or only one, you must answer the call. Your gift is needed and God will use it exactly how He plans. Success isn’t measured in numbers, as important as those numbers may feel. Success is doing what God calls you to, regardless of the outcome.

Keep dreaming, keep working, keep pursuing. Your gift is important!
