Our Why Is More Important than Our What is about how God looks at our decisions. God has always been concerned about our hearts and our relationship to him. Your why always looks to your heart's motives. What we do for the cause of Christ is important, but why we do it shows our heart's desire. We are to do the things we do because we love Jesus out of a pure motive, not because we are forced or compelled by servitude, or from some contract we think we can force onto God for admittance into heaven.

Salvation always has been freely given upon our confession and repentance of sin, our heart's desire to accept Jesus as our Savior, and our desire to follow him the rest of our lives. Then the adventure really begins for us as we follow after Jesus, and he leads us ever deeper and deeper into his love, grace, and mercies, and we become more like him.
