What drives you?

Power, positions and material possessions are important. Many people would love to have them and being human, whenever we see people having them, we will want them too, even though there is no concrete motivation behind.

i tend to stray away sometimes, in trying to convince myself that i should have this and that too. Thankfully the Holy Spirit always brings me back on track. Whatever things i possess, whether its power or position, if its not from God, if its not out of the right motivation, they will slip away eventually and we wont be able to be performing it as well as we should.

I wanna keep my focus right. Need God to continue telling me where i should head. I know why i want to be a teacher. I know the motivation behind, thats why i can keep going. I hope wherever place i serve, it will also be out of the right motivation. No one to impress, no one to boast... all for one audience, God. Even i remain a nobody, i want to serve the best way i can, as if serving God in His palace. Its not about fame, not about feeling bigger, because if its not of the right driving force, you wont be able to sustain it and still lose it. Why put yourself through that when you already know right from the start?

If God tells you that you will be like this forever, serving only Him and no specific position, will you still serve as hard? Does it matter so much to you? Weigh it! If your audience is not God, i would advise you to let it go now. Go for something that has the right driving force and is really approved by God.
