What are you busy with lately?  What consumes you?  What eats up most of your time?  Who do you spend time the most?

Questions are great tools for critical thinking. 

Answering these questions brings to surface our life's motivation. 

Action speaks louder than words.  Our schedule reveals more our character than our talk.

Two most important desires for life:

•    Desire to know and honor God

•    Desire to serve one another

These two things produce in us motivation to act in a selfless and Christ-like way.

Desiring God's honor can be expensive and painful. 

• It can mean waiting longer just to keep character. 
• It can mean forgiving even if you think you have all the right to get mad or get even. 
• It can mean paying back for the things you messed up. 
• Its expensive but it promises eternal rewards.

Desiring to serve others is Christ's new command for us "LOVE ONE ANOTHER".

• Find somebody to encourage. Have that "Barnabas" factor.
  
• Find somebody to help.
• Pray for people around you that you know are in need of breakthrough.
• Be available.

We are  the church, let us not merely love in words.

Serve!
