desire to serve (phil 2:13)

Philippians 2:13

for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure

It is God who gives us the ability to work for Him, to serve Him, but not only that, He gives us the will to do it, the desire to please Him. Begrudging submission does not honour God, but when the Holy Spirit transforms our hearts through the power of the gospel, our deepest desire is to serve and please God.
