Bible verse of the day...Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, 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)

My reflection of the verse

Have you sometimes felt that it is hard to do something when you don't feel like doing it? I think most of us have felt that way. But the verse for today tells us that in whatever we do, we have to do it for God. We must try to please Him. No matter how tough it might be, we have to do our best for Him alone and not to please any man. For instance, if you are student, you have to study hard for God because learning new things is a blessing and God will reward you if you study hard. If you are working, then, you must work hard for God and not to please your boss alone because the job you have comes from God. If you are a homemaker, you must take care of your home and family with care and love for God because they are gifts from heaven. Therefore, in whatever we do, we do it for the Lord because He gives reward to those who give their best to Him.
