Our Work Matters

 

Therefore, my beloved,

be steadfast, immovable,

always abounding

        in the work of the Lord,

knowing that in the Lord

     your labor is not in vain.

             1 Corinthians 15. 58

(Rejoice,

be energized by God's work

      in us and through us.

The world may claim our efforts

        as insignificant,

but our work in the Lord's eyes

      profoundly matters.

God does not waste the

       lives of His faithful ones.

God sees our work differently

  because He sees us differently.

What if we considered this task

   as His anointing and His appointing?

Today's assignment

is neither a single passage

          nor a solitary page,

    but a body of work.)

O LORD,

May all that we do today

    bring glory to You.

May we abound in Your Word,

   may we abound in Your work

        in us and through us.

Help us to be faithful to You

   in whatever we accomplish,

   or attempt,

   or approach,

 with a heart aligned with Yours.

It is not just our work that matters,

    but we matter to You,

more than we can imagine.
