What Is Your Motivation

It is an important step to identify your motivation. The focus of our motivation is directly tied to the goals we have for our life.

When it comes to our goals we probably don’t mind just sitting around and thinking about them. Some companies even encourage their employees to spend up to 20% of their work week just daydreaming, Google and 3M have publicized their policies. They claim some of their most innovative products come from them freeing up the minds of their employees.

The motivation of Paul’s writings present a good foundation that reveal practical perspectives and steps that we need to follow, in order to follow Christ.

Paul wrote that we are to live a blameless life “before Him” (Eph. 1:4). For this to come a reality, we have to know that ever thought we ponder and every action we make cannot escape God’s awareness. This is a challenging concept if we are walking merely by sight.

This lifestyle is only lead by the wisdom that is given to those who seek God’s Word. Paul identifies the redemption and forgiveness that we receive from a life that is lived out of a faith in Jesus Christ (Eph. 1:7-9).

So what is your motivation based off of. Something physically scene in this life or a wisdom that chased and lived out in this life for a trusted reward in the next life.
