An Audience of One

Colossians 3:23

“Whatever you do, work at it with your whole being, for the Lord and not for men.”

There’s a quiet satisfaction in knowing that God sees what no one else notices. The encouraging letter. The dishes washed at midnight. The kindness offered when no thank-you comes. We spend so much of life chasing applause that never quite satisfies, performing for an audience that forgets by morning. 

But Scripture invites us into a different way. When we work for the Lord, the smallest task becomes sacred ground. Folding laundry becomes worthy. Answering a phone call becomes ministry. Motive transforms ordinary moments into holy ones. 

You’re not laboring for a paycheck or a pat on the back. You’re living before the steady, loving gaze of Christ. And He sees you.

I’m Lonnie Davis and these are thoughts worth thinking.

Prayer: Father, let my hands work for You today. Free me from chasing approval. Let my ordinary moments be for you.
