Good Thursday morning, my friends.
Do we have the kind of attitude towards work that Paul espouses in Colossians 3:23?
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men
There is a delicate balancing act here, however. It is all too common for work and accomplishment (and wealth and success) to take too important of a place in our lives. It can replace God and our family in terms of priority. But we should be blessing our employers every day with our work effort and ethic. And that is an area I need to improve upon. Reflect today on your own situation and see if God has something to say on this subject in your life.
Grace and peace be yours in abundance,
Bruce
