Motivation

...remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 1:3 When the work that you put your hands to is rooted in love for who you serve, it's a lot easier to stay motivated during times of resistance. Consider why you do the work you do and find a way to let love motivate your efforts. Remembering and forgetting sometimes I find myself doing them exactly opposite on given circumstances but having faith and LOVE above all things always puts me in the right direction. MOTIVATION, this has been my wall lately. I find myself apart from everything I do and I tend to question what and where is the point of doing what I do, I also find myself recently lying around thinking of the possible things I could and can do but pull aside. Lack of motivation due to certain situations shouldn’t pull me down but nonetheless a greater push for me to strive for the best. HE always has the funny ways of clearing things up for me and I appreciate HIS sense of humor all the time.

yep, God definitely has quite a sense of humour huh? :) "let love motivate you.." so true... i have to remind myself of that during times of selfish motivations.

I agree with everyone, very well said!

That is how I've been feeling lately. Completely unmotivated. I hope that you find your motivation and we both get the things we need/want to get done done!

AMEN to that. HE has a plan for all of us. We only need to keep faith and sow the love that HE has given us. Motivating one self can be hard if you don't have enough faith and you have less love. But I'm sure you have both in abundance. :)

i love this post. Very inspirational. We're all thought to be motivated and to focus, but sometimes we lost the will power to do so. Thank God for your reminder.

Have a great day!
