Love God Greatly - 1 & 2 Timothy Campione

What a gift it is when we have authorities in our lives who are brothers and sisters in Christ! We should work for our bosses as “working for the Lord,” knowing that our work reflects our love for God and builds up the body. Where are you cutting corners and slacking as an employee? What step could you take this week in word or deed to generously serve your employer with genuine gratitude? Instead of focusing on WHO we work for and whether they are worthy of our best, we should focus on WHOM we are privileged to serve: Christ. 

Dear Jesus,

Help me to serve You faithfully at work, knowing that when I am honoring You, my labor is not in vain. Forgive me for the times when I’ve compromised in this area, and give me Your strength to complete each task with increased gratitude, excellence, and grace. God, since you have provided so generously for me, I pray that my heart response would be to honor You by being a blessing to my employer. Amen.
