Sometimes, what drives our lifestyle is fear-based, not love-based. We may try to please people all the time, or we may try to control them. We may try to manage our image or get into the greed mode, where all we want is more. None of these lifestyles are based on the correct fuel. Love is the fuel that should drive us. In opposition to these lifestyles which are often “me centered,” a lifestyle based on love is “other-centered.” To break away from these lifestyles may not be easy, but it is biblical and it is healthier for us in the long run
