"Let all that you do be done with love."
1 Corinthians 16:14 (NKJ)
Why do something if you don't like to do it?
Not counting chores or other mandatory duties, of course.
The best things made are those that were made with the labor of love. A real passion to create, a determination to work hard because you deeply care about it. Love is the strongest, most powerful motivation--and sometimes, it's all that gets you to continue on when you'd otherwise want to give up. Love for something is very important in writing and other ministries.
But I think this Bible verse applies not only to using your talents, but also in "normal" stuff life as well. Like going to school/work--you can do that with love by brightening your teacher/boss's day with enthusiasm and diligence.
It really makes things better--tasks become more pleasant for everyone. Don't you agree? :)
