Work as Worship
Can you imagine presenting what you work on, whether it’s goods or services, unto Jesus Christ? Would He be impressed or insulted? Excellent, well-done, and well-made work, is not vanity. Hard and smart work is worship; it is to God and for God. It is just as spiritual as evangelism, saying prayers and singing churchy songs.
Colossians 3:23-24, ESV
23“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, 24knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.”
Proverbs 22:29, ESV
29“Do you see a man skillful in his work?
He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.”
Matthew 5:14, 16, ESV
14“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
16“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
