Work produced by faith: anytime we do anything in response to God's prompting it is done in faith. We're stepping into the unknown. When God calls us to something - it's always a faith thing. When I think about starting a new work (think ministry) it is always produced by faith.
What's our motive? The motive is always love. ...your labor prompted by love: Love is the motivator. Love for God and Love for people!
And we press on because of the hope we have in Jesus! ...your endurance inspired by hope: Let's face it, ministry is hard. The only reason that we press on is because of the hope with have in Jesus Christ. He sustains us. He is our reward. He is our hope. If you are tired or discuraged - focus on Jesus. He is your hope!
