• Why Do We Do The Things We Do?

  I've been thinking. My mind wonders, Why d we follow after things. Or even follow people? What draws us to do what we do?
  
  Is it because we want to be liked? Be loved? Be accepted? Be appreciated? We have a reason why we do what we do?
  
  I'm learning not to follow others because others follow after others. It's like copying. It's like moving with the crowd. There should be something that motives us in following.
  
  There should be some encouragement or lifting in spirit that draws us to follow after God's Spirit. We shouldn't be driven to do on emotions strives. But on something that draws us to want or who to follow.
  
  There will come a time when there is a dry spell in our lives. We question the whys. Our mind will wonder. Why am I doing this? Is the well dry? Have the flames grown dimmer?
  
  We all have our yearnings and things that fascinates us to follow after our hearts desires. Those things that appeal us. Those pleasurable things that captures our hearts. Those things that satisfy our souls.
  
  We all have our likes and dislikes. We all have our own opinions. We all have something inside of us the drives to do what we do.
  
  May the LORD draw us closer to Him.
  May we be God driven and not people driven.
  May the Spirit of the LORD guide us into the truth.
  May we do what is right in the sight of the LORD.
  May God grant us our hearts desire through His will for us.
  Amen.
  
  Thank for reading.
  Have A Great Day!
