What Drives You Reveals Who You Are And Were You'll End Up : written by Alfred
What drives you? Why do you get out of bed every morning? Whether you've given it much thought or not we've all got a reason.
Is it your personal ambition? You want to be a success. You want to become rich. You want to achieve something big. You want to do something that would leave your mark on the world that would make people respect and think highly of you when you're gone.
Whatever it is that occupies your mind and takes up your effort, energy and time everyday reveals where your treasure is... where your heart is.
Matthew 6:21 KJV
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
He that sows to the flesh would reap death, while he that sows to the spirit would reap life (Galatians 6: 8).
Everyday we are sowing seeds. Whatever we spend our time, energy or money on is a seed. What kind of seeds are you sowing.
It's time for you to realign your priorities and put the spirit first.
Matthew 6:33 KJV
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Put God's business first and he would take care of your business. The church is God's business. God's business is soul winning.
Let what wakes you up in the morning be the desire and passion for soul winning and doing the work in the church.
Change your motivation in life. Change your drive. Realign your priorities. Begin sowing to the spirit and reap life.

Galatians 6:7-8 KJV
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [8] For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
Matthew 6:31-33 KJV
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? [32] (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. [33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
