Perspective

 
Thank you all for your patience with me - I was sick the past several days and spent a better portion of them in bed...I appreciate you and thought often of you praying that you would not miss my messages too much.
 
Colossians 3:17 "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him."
 
Sometimes all we need is a new perspective...if we are doing something "because we have to" then we may resent it and grudge our way through it.  But if we do all things in the name of the Lord Jesus than it's no longer about us and this new perspective can help us smile through work, chores, traffic or any other number of things we do every day.
 
Dear Lord,  Thank You for giving us the ultimate perspective on life and all that we do day in and day out.  Please help us to keep You in mind as we accomplish tasks and help us to remember to do all things in Your name and to Your glory.  Amen.
