Work for the Lord

Hey y'all

Today's scripture:

Whatever you do [whatever your task may be], work from the soul [that is, put in your very best effort], as [something done] for the Lord and not for men, knowing [with all certainty] that it is from the Lord [not from men] that you will receive the inheritance which is your [greatest] reward. It is the Lord Christ whom you [actually] serve.
COLOSSIANS 3:23‭-‬24 AMP

For me, changing my mentality and dedicating my work to God is what really truly motivates me. One of the daily things I can't stand is doing dishes, especially by hand. Once I decide that I'm doing it for God though, I'm motivated to get it done! Not just done, but done with care, quality, a smile on my face, and peace in my heart...

Happy Sunday y'all! Here's today's scripture: Jesus Christ is [eternally changeless, always] the same yesterday and today and forever. HEBREWS 13:8 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/heb.13.8.AMP NIV translation Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8 NIV https://bible.com/bible/111/heb.13.8.NIV MSG translation Appreciate your pastoral leaders who gave you the Word of God. Take a good look at the way they live, and let their faithfulness instruct you, as well as their truthfulness. There should be a consistency that runs through us all. For Jesus doesn’t change—yesterday, today, tomorrow, he’s always totally himself. Hebrews 13:7‭-‬8 MSG https://bible.com/bible/97/heb.13.7-8.MSG Jesus, the Anointed One, is always the same—yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews 13:8 TPT https://bible.com/bible/1849/heb.13.8.TPT It's so great to me, very comforting, to know that God really is always the same! You don't have to worry abo...

Ecclesiastes November 2020

  Hey y’all! I hope everyone is doing well and feeling great! This post covers the Ecclesiastes of the month which is chapter 11.   I will be sharing three different translations of this chapter; the Ampllified, Contemporary English Version, and New Living Translation.     ECCLESIASTES 11 AMPLIFIED VERSION (AMP) Cast Your Bread on the Waters 1 Cast your bread on the surface of the waters, [be diligently active, make thoughtful decisions], for you will  I.e. be richly rewarded. find it after many days.  2 Give a portion to seven, or even [divide it] to eight, for you do not know what misfortune may occur on the earth.  3 If the clouds are full [of rain], they empty themselves on the earth; and if a tree falls toward the south or toward the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it lies.  4 He who watches the wind [waiting for all conditions to be perfect] will not sow [seed], and he who looks at the clouds will not reap [a harves...

Hey y'all! I pray everyone is doing great! The scripture I'm using for this week's Teaching Tuesday Thread is a perfect reminder for our behavior not just for this time of year, but all year round. But love [that is, unselfishly seek the best or higher good for] your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; for your reward will be great (rich, abundant), and you will be sons of the Most High; because He Himself is kind and gracious and good to the ungrateful and the wicked. Luke 6:35 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/luk.6.35.AMP So when we, followers of Christ Jesus, talk about love it also includes those we'd rather not be nice to. I'm talking about people that aren't nice to us, right down mean people, even the wicked. Now let's make clear that I'm not saying let them treat you anyway they want, no! I am saying though that we do need to show kindness and giving without expecting anything in return. I'll be the first to adm...
