MOTIVATION is the inner impulse that moves us forward toward an intended goal or desire.  In its most spiritual expression it is the awakened power of Zeal or Enthusiasm directed from a Higher consciousness or awareness.  When I am aware of a higher activity at work in my life and in the world I can direct this inner impulse toward a greater good.  Many are stirred or “called” to manifest peace and harmony in the world.  Few remember that to manifest peace, one must BE peace.  MOTIVATION is a miraculous aspect of the human consciousness.  It moves us from a state of inertia to a state of activity.  Directed by the Christ Mind or Higher Consciousness, filtered through the Powers of Love and Understanding, SPIRITUAL MOTIVATION moves us from a state of desire to a state of Being that which we desire.
