And the men
did the work faithfully.

           2 Chronicles 34. 12

(No matter what
   God places before us,
whatever we do 
             in His Name,
every good endeavor 
   is always significant,
   more than we can know.
We stand on the bedrock 
of the faithfulness of others.
Faithfulness is not concerned 
    with success nor outcomes,
not acts of obligation,
but emerges from
          belonging to Him,
a state of steadfast love, 
why we do
          what we do.)

O LORD,
May we work faithfully today
in all that we do,
in whatever we do,
not for reward or recognition,
        but for Your glory,
even if we never see 
         the fruit You bear,
even if no one ever knows,
         but You do.
Nothing is insignificant 
          in Your eyes.
You have appointed
             Your faithful people 
in strategic 
   and unexpected corners
for Your glory.
Help us to 
    engrave Your name here,
    even through this.
