What Fuels Me – First Thoughts

Greetings Dear Reader,

As I have worked through some things that I wish to address in my own life this year I have gone to the very core of what motivates me.  I spent some time listing things that I truly want in my life and how to get to them.  In order to do that, I had to choose things that I am going to remove from my life as well. 

As I pondered these things I saw that I got hung up on some things that are not healthy for me but I do them anyway.  I wondered what motivated me to be that person in that part of my life.  I realized that I had to address what fuels me in those places and by that I mean what drives me to do the things I would not.

Overall I am pondering what motivates me.  Everything I choose to devote my time to is fueled by something.  If I can address which engine is driving my choices then I can work toward only making the choices that are good for my life and following.  I can learn how to fuel only the engine that will move me closer to Christ.

As I think through these things it may seem simplistic at times.  It is, however, true that not everything about following Christ is complicated.

Wishing you joy in the journey,
