Do Everything...

Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do work heartily, as if for the for the Lord not for men."ESV

Who do I work for? In the world's view, I would work for a non-profit literacy organization. In my view, I work for God. How am I doing with that personal objective? Do I give as much time and attention to working for God every day as I do my job? I'm sorry to admit that I fail in that area a lot of the time. My spirit is willing, but my flesh is very weak. I am trying to stay aware of the doors God is opening before me, only with Holy Spirit insight, and be bold when walking through them, only with Holy Spirit power. That is the key, isn't it? Seeking God and His will and way. 

Last night, my husband and I had a long talk about how we are doing. We admitted we have both been a little off lately. I'm sure we are not alone in this feeling at all. He, primarily, is overwhelmed with his job, as there is a big transition looming for him. He puts in a lot of hours for his regular job, a non-profit life fight organization, and he also works a DAR for the FAA. Yeah, both are important and can be stressful. I am just weary of Covid and everything that surrounds that issue. 

This morning, we decided that we will recommit to approaching EVERYTHING to honor God and be living witnesses to those around us. This will not be easy; it never is, because we get in the way with our stress or feelings. We both continue to be works in progress. Thankfully, with God, all things are possible.
