DEVOTIONAL YOU VERSION
CHANGING OUR PERSPECTIVES
Have you ever found yourself tasked with doing something that was boring, uneventful, uncomfortable, or difficult? When we find ourselves in those situations, our first reaction might be to complain or quit trying.
Sometimes, mundane jobs and every-day responsibilities don't feel like worthwhile investments of our time and energy. But the truth is: everything we do matters to God and is used by Him.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." Colossians 3:23-24 NIV
Whatever you do. Whether you're in your dream career or working for someone difficult, whether you're taking care of your house, or organizing a business-everything we do is an opportunity to worship Jesus. It's just a matter of perspective.

If we view life through a lens that is only concerned with ourselves, we will quickly grow tired of our circumstances and disappointed by our striving. But if we view life through a lens of worship, nothing in this life will give us more joy than serving Jesus.
If everything becomes about Him, then everything is worth doing well. If we're Christians, then our lives belong to Jesus. As Paul put it, Jesus is now our "master."
Our whole world becomes about Him, His purposes, and His glory. When we do everything with Him in mind, He never fails to bless us with His presence, love, and grace. And one day, He will also give us an eternal reward for our faithful service.
So as you think about the work God has put in front of you, consider what it would mean to do everything for the Lord. And then ask yourself: "In what ways will I honor God and inspire others today?
