MAYBE you could be my MOTIVATION!

Lol! Yes, I know the "maybe" should be "baby", as sung by Kelly Rowland, but for the purposes of this post....please continue reading :-)

WHAT MOTIVATES YOU? 

As I asked myself this question, I couldn't help but stare blankly. Not because I didn't have an answer, but because I honestly couldn't put my finger on what motivates me as of right now. You see, there was once a time where I could answer that question with the quickness because that's exactly how God worked in my life then. Now, its a bit different. I could answer that question by responding with: PEOPLE...MY LOVE FOR GOD...MY FAMILY...MYSELF...etc., but I can't because I don't know what/who is motivating me at this point in my life.

This is EXACTLY how I feel at times, lol!

Its like my motivation to do things come in spells. Sometimes I feel HIGHLY motivated to go out & conquer the world and other times I have no motivation whatsoever to even get out of bed....I'm just being real. I spend alot of time trying to motivate, encourage, inspire, and bless others that I often do not do the same for myself. I give alot, but don't use alot of what I have to give for ME. Sometimes I need someone to motivate me to continue living. Now don't get me wrong, I know I have a purpose and that God requires so much of me, but if I can be real about it, sometimes I simply do not have the motivation to continue on.(NOTE: When I say "continue on" I don't mean that I want to die, lol. What I do mean is that I don't have the energy to put the next foot forward sometimes)

Over the past few months, I've lost my mojo and passion for alot of things. Well, I wouldn't necessarily say "lost", but it has been put on the back burner. I know that it is no one but God who is keeping me and who is helping me to continue walking along this journey we call life. I just sometimes do not have the motivation to do those things that I know I should be doing. Its not that I'm ignorant to the fact, its just that the desire to do those things which I once would have shot off like a rocket to do previously has taken a vacation. God may be doing something that I'm totally unaware of right now. Normally, I would be extra excited about the next phase of my life, but I'm not. Am I depressed?..NO. Am I sad?...NO. I just don't know "how" to feel right now. That's how I know God is doing something different with me and my life, and I'm actually GLAD about it! I just don't have the motivation right now to even *think* about it, and maybe that's actually not a bad thing. It will all work out for his glory in my favor though....this I know!

Motivation...motivation, oh where have you gone????....Maybe YOU could be it! :-)
