I just come out of a bad depression and I am doing better little by little but I want to be passionate about God and Life and the things that I love to do. What are good ways to become and empowered woman of God and what are ways that I can find my passion in life? Life is too short to be miserable and unhappy.

Good for you. Your passion would have to be something you are good at and like to do. Only you and God know what your passion for life might be. It does not have to be something huge but could simply be bringing a smile to someones face. You can pray and ask for guidance or direction.

You know what the best way is to find your passion in life? Go after what God loves the most and you will find your passion and destiny. God loves souls more than anything. If you go after lost souls, you are fulfilling your number one purpose in God. This is why many Christians experience a hang up in their walk with God, because they lose sight of this important purpose. God design your life to be fulfilling when you exercise your purpose. Check this out. As believers we are always looking for God to do something for us. But if you read the scriptures, you have to make it happen for someone else. For example, there is a scripture in Proverbs which says, "Those who refresh others, will themselves be refresh". It does not matter where your at spiritually or what you are going through. Find a way to get your interest off yourself and on to someone else. And watch what happens.

God bless you for passing through a time of depression and wanting to get your life together again. I know that that is hard. I think that you already have the answer. The things you love to do are where God wants you to serve Him. Those things may need developing, but that is okay. He gave you skills, interests and passions so you can act on them in service to Him and to other people.

Amen sister!
Glad that you are getting better. The VERY best way that I can stay encouraged is by being in the Word daily. And being in a bible study. Prayer, fellowship with other believers.
I know life is tough and I've had my share of days when I just don't know if I can make it. Hang on to the promises of God.
Remember that we are in spiritual warfare with the enemy of our souls. Here are some verses:
"Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil" Ephesians 6:11 (read the whole chapter!
Philippians 4:6 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God" (again read the whole thing!)
and Take Every Thought Captive
2 Corinthians 10:5 "We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, ans we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ"

Wow, I can't help at all.
I had half a thought about finding people you trust, admire and investigating their faith, as some faiths are not woman empowering, as far as I know.
Not being a woman - I am at a loss.
Finding passion in ones life - means taking risks doesn't it? trying things until a life is formed from things that bring you joy.
Sorry to waste your time, just glad your happier being you. Peace.

The best thing I have found is to worship God with singing and praise. The more I worship Him, the more of His joy and love and peace I have. He lifts the depression right off of me.
Passion comes when we are enthusiastic about God. I also have Philippians 4:8 painted in calligraphy in a frame in my bathroom and when I'm busy getting ready it reminds me to think good positive thoughts. Excercise is also a good way to meditate on positive thoughts also. The excercise helps your body and mind become more balanced. Ask God to show you what gifts and talents He has given you. You'll be surprised to discover new things about yourself as He shows you. Bless you.

It is simply what makes you the most happy. You may think it is a simple answer, and that I have put no thought into it, but in reality....I have thought about this forever. I have finally come up with the answer. Is it not our goal in life to be completely happy? So to find your true passion.....find something that makes you that 'completely happy' we are searching for!

Make a list of things that you'd like to do in the next month, the next year, and sometime during your life.
Then start doing them! You're right, life is too short. We need to learn to enjoy our short time here.
