It’s not uncommon for workers to see their work as the source of earthly rewards like income, insurance, or even a sense of purpose.
But our jobs also can provide eternal benefits when we use our work circumstances to serve others. From customers, to coworkers, to supply chain partners, work puts us in contact with people who need to hear about Jesus. When we seek God’s guidance and see how He moves in those opportunities, our own faith can grow.
Paul told the Corinthian church: “Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them.” (1 Corinthians 7:17)
Notice in your work today how your service to God and others helps grow your own faith.
