Work heartily

“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;”

Today's insight

Every task before you today carries quiet dignity when you change who you are working for. The verse calls you to approach "whatsoever ye do" with your whole soul, working "heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men." When your daily effort is offered directly to God rather than to win human praise, even ordinary chores become acts of devotion.

Reflect

Which responsibility feels burdensome today, and how would it change if you did it solely "as to the Lord"?

Prayer

Lord, help me to pour my whole heart into everything I put my hands to today. Teach me to serve You faithfully in the small and unseen tasks, seeking Your pleasure rather than the approval of others. Amen.
