What Drives You?

The force that drives you, just like your source, will determine how much you will achieve. There are forces that may be called “low” or “negative vibrations”, which are greed, envy, jealousy, strife, anger, etc. These are truly forces that can propel you in a certain direction for a very long time and will make it seem like you are actually achieving great results. The truth however, is that you will only reap corruption and a lot of dissatisfaction from these results. Jesus said, "In the same way, every good tree yields good fruits, but the rotten tree yields evil fruits. A good tree is not able to be yielding evil fruits, nor a rotten tree to be yielding good fruits. – Matthew 7:17, 18.

There is a better force that can motivate you to achieve true and lasting breakthroughs in your life. At the very core of this is the one force called LOVE. Everything that is done out of love achieves much. “But now these three remain: faith, hope [or, confident expectation], love-but [the] greatest of these [is] love.” – 1 Corinthians 13:13. Love brings with it all the “high” or “positive vibrations”, which are joy, gratitude, peace, patience, etc. “But the fruit of the Spirit is: love, joy, peace [or, freedom from anxiety], patience, kindness, goodness [or, generosity], faith, gentleness [or, considerateness], self-control. Against such there is no law.” – Galatians 5:22, 23.

You may be asking how one can make a decision to be motivated by love. In his book “You Were Born Rich”, Bob Proctor says, “Love people, use money”. I believe this is sound advice coming from a great man. Once you reverse the statement and begin to love money and use people, you will suddenly find yourself operating under the negative vibrations and according to the law of attraction, negative vibrations bring negative results! Paul advises Timothy, “But the ones desiring to be growing rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful desires, which sink people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all evils, of which some by longing for [it] went astray [or, wandered away] from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But you, O man of God, be fleeing from these [things], and be pursuing righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patient endurance, [and] gentleness [or, considerateness].” – 1 Timothy 6:9-11. This is a scripture that is commonly misquoted to say that money is the root of all evil. Notice that it says “For the love of money…” Money is actually good and we require it in our daily living even to spread the gospel and to feed our families! I recommend that you read books like “The Science of Getting Rich” by Wallace D. Wattles and “You Were Born Rich” by Bob Proctor. I really found them awesome.

Summary: Love people and use money. Love is the most powerful vibration that you can use to drive you towards your breakthrough. The Spirit of God will come with the fruits that are based on love.

Affirmation: I use money and love people. I operate by the law of love. I make my goals based on love and I strive towards a breakthrough that benefits others. - Tinei Shamu
