And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men. Colossians 3:24

 

There will be times in life when discouragement sets in as a result of an environment that isn’t pleasing to you. Many either give up or turn to other forms of pleasure that are outside the will of God. No doubt, this leaves one in a vulnerable spot, acting upon how they “feel”, and the consequences can be disastrous.

 

As a child of God, you have to remember, your commitment is to God. As a representative of Him, He wants you to do your best in life, keeping your commitments and not let the external forces of evil influence your obligations, character and witness.

 

Knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ. Colossians 3:24

 

You might be in a tough spot right now. Don’t let that divert you from what God calls you to do. You are living for Him and how you live will be judged. Those Heavenly rewards will be worth it when you hear God say, “Well done my good and faithful servant”. God bless!
