Motivated By Love

A man hired a maid to be a servant in his house. He gave to her a list of all the chores she would daily have to complete in order to earn her pay. Eventually they fell in love with each other and were married. He immediately discarded the list of chores. However, she continued to perform all of them. But her motivation for doing so had changed. She formerly served him because she was required to do so in order to receive pay. Now she serves him because she loves him, not for pay.

This man is “the Man Christ Jesus” (as He is called in 1 Timothy 2:5). This woman is His wife, the church of Christ (as she is identified in Ephesians 5:22-32). She formerly was but a servant in His house (as in Hebrews 3:5). Her list of duties was the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17). She performed them in order to receive remuneration from Him (Leviticus 18:5). But when He took her to be His wife, He removed the list of duties she was required to perform (Colossians 2:14; Romans 10:4; Galatians 5:18). However, she yet performs all that was formerly required. But she does so with a different motive. She formerly served Him in the hope of receiving remuneration from Him. She now serves Him because she loves Him (Galatians 5:13f).

What is your motivation for serving Christ?
