Thoughts for reflection .... (Pleasing God)

In the Bible in Hebrews 11.6 we learn that it is impossible to please God without faith. Also in Galatians 5.6 we see that what counts is 'faith working through love'. I therefore need to be asking myself: Are all my actions, my words, my thoughts that relate to my relationships, work and other activities (i.e. my whole life) coming from a motivation of God's love in me through faith in Christ? This is the gauge of whether my life at any particular moment is pleasing to God.
