Motivation

Before I begin I thought I should say something about my one word blog title names. Well I'm not sure why I keep having the one word titles for my blogs but it all just keeps making sense in my head right now... Anyway so the word of the day is motivation. It popped into my head as I watched the dreams of the NC State Football team be crushed on Saturday when they lost to Maryland. I just had the thought of what was giving those boys the motivation to be out on that field that cold night, what gave them the motivation to fight and come back after being down by a few touchdowns, and even what gave them the motivation to want to play football in the first place? Well since I'm not an interviewer or reporter and can't interview my hero Owen Spencer ;) then I guess I'll have to bring it back down to things I can ask myself and even you can ask yourself. This month of school and even the month to come is filled with project, tests, finals, papers, you name it! So how in the world am I making it through? If I had a motivation meter I'm pretty sure these last few weeks it has been set at a 2. I'd rather watch tv on my computer than study for anything! So where does the motivation drive come from? Well I know where mine comes from and I would just suggest to you to do some soul searching over the next few weeks when you're so busy you could lose your mind and figure out where your extra boost is coming from. Enjoy the next few weeks and remember there is light at the end of the tunnel!

For I can do everything through Christ,who gives me strength.
Philippians 4:13

Purpose.

How many of us out there question our purpose everyday? What is the purpose of this class I'm in, what is the purpose of this job I'm at, etc. You can fill in the blank when it comes to the "what is the purpose of________" question and you can probably come up with a number of things, just like I can. So what is the purpose of the situations and experiences we go through on a daily basis? Well I have no idea but my thought is that the easy answer is that we are being taught something. When we look back on the things we've been through we can almost always think of a time when we said "what is the purpose of this", but then we can also say that we learned something from that time too, either good or bad. So try not to be weary or discouraged by the situations or experiences you face daily in your life because there is some light at the end of the tunnel even if you necessarily can't see it yet.

Trust.. Is it Just a Five Letter Word...

Trust is a five letter word that has a great deal of meaning behind it. So of course I looked it up in the dictionary to see what it said the word meant. According to Webster, trust is assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something. It doesn’t just say reliance on it says assured reliance on; therefore this is something that you hold security in. This five letter word holds so much power behind it. So what does trust mean to you? Have you ever really thought about the people you trust with the information you give them. Have you ever trusted someone who’s broken that trust? These questions may seem intense and harsh but with the world in the shape it’s in today who can we really trust? Ask yourself who you are putting all your trust in.
