WORK: A DEVOTIONAL EXPERIENCE
"What ever your task, work heartily, as serving
the Lord and not men, knowing that from the
Lord you will receive the inheritance as your
reward; you are serving the Lord Christ."
(Colossians 3:23,24 RSV)
Is your work dull, boring and meaningless?
Is your work tiring and getting you down?
It doesn't have to. Your work can be transformed
into a joyful, refreshing situation with purpose
and meaning.
How can my work be changed from a weary
routine to an invigorating opportunity? Very
simply. Take Jesus to work with you. It works
for me, and it will work for you. When we do
our work enthusiastically as unto the Lord it
becomes a holy thing. We are to do it for God,
and not man.
When we work heartily as serving the Lord,
with "hymns and spiritual songs, singing and
making melody to the Lord with all your hearts."
(Ephesians 5:19 RSV) Then the drab routine task
we are doing becomes pure joy.
MY WORK CAN BE A SACRED TASK.
