(Zealous ‘n’ Zesty, speaking: ) I give you faith to try things seemingly impossible. I go the distance no matter what the cost. Why do you lie down time and again, surrendering your all to King Jesus and whatever ill or troubles might come to you in your battles for Him? –When you’ve just come through one tough time and are enjoying a bit of a rest and some peace? And then after submitting, a new round of battles occur. What, on earth, would make you seek the peace of the Saviour and not just your own?
I am zealous and strong, and I don’t give in to little things that try to buffet me. Together we do the job, and do it right, and go at it again if it wasn’t done properly and the enemy got in in some way. We don’t take no for an answer when Jesus says yes. We say yes, no matter what it costs us. 
Zest? The zest of lemon is the strong tasting oil in the peal. What a great flavour it can give, but it’s bitter and strong. So when tough times come, we just make lemon slice and lemonade and make those life lemons--those sour things--into something good. And we don’t give up until good has come. We milk each experience for the good and make sure we fight to bring it about. It’s always going to be a fight. We don’t let the enemy have the last swing, but we get the last say and last laugh. We make each thing end on joy. –Just like Jesus does with the world, we do this with the smaller situations of life. 
“All things work together for good to them that love God.” And it does take teamwork, us working together to bring the good. And why? Because we love Jesus. We love God. We are zealous and empassionate about it, and keep at it no matter what.
