Philosophy Essay
What pushes me to do the right things when nobody is looking? Some may call it integrity but I know deep down what the real reason is on doing the right thing. I do it for God because God is my savior and I would do anything for him. When he sent his only son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins, so that we wouldn’t be punished I think that is the biggest act of love I have ever seen. So I’m going to try my best to give all my power and glory to God.

Because I know everyday he’s watching me and looking down on me making sure that I’m doing okay and if I need some support, because I’m having a tough time I know he will give me all the strength I need to keep on going. He also motivates me to help others because I know he would do whatever it takes to make as many people happy as he can. Last but not least he motivates me to try and spread the word of him and tell as many people as I can about him. Because the more people that believe the better the world is going to be. Now I have no idea what I’m doing is right or wrong but it doesn’t matter to...
