Awe of God is our Motivation

Great article over on The Gospel Coalition about what the pure focus of our lives and ministry should be

"Every human being has been hardwired by God to live in daily awe of him. This means the awe of God was designed to be the deepest, most life-shaping practical daily motivation of every human being. This is the calling of every person. This is the umbrella of protection over every person. This is the reality that defines and gives shape to every other reality."

Basing on Psalm 145, Paul Trip gives you a very succinct interpretation of the motivation for the mission of the Church - and the essence of our very lives.

Go have a look.
