誰是老闆？

誰是老闆？

聖經閱讀：歌羅西書3:22-55

2015年11月11日(三)

上班的時候，我經常會經過別人的電腦，我看見他們在線上購物、看影片，或是上網瀏覽，而沒有在工作。這些人只做了一點點工作，為什麼呢？也許他們偷懶，或是他們不尊重同事，或許他們看見老闆也不怎麼努力。

今天閱讀的經文讓我們看見一個完全不同的工作態度。第23-24節告訴我們：「無論做甚麼，你們都要專心一意，像是為主工作，不是為人工作，要知道……你們事奉的是主基督。」身為基督徒，我們的工作要蒙上帝喜悅，祂是我們工作真正的老闆。

也許你在世上的老闆並不好，但是要記得，我們所服事的耶穌了解我們、愛我們，而且會慷慨地賞賜我們，我們活在世上是為了要服事祂、榮耀祂！ —BL

「我感謝我們的主基督耶穌；因為他賜給我力量，以我為可信任的，指派我來事奉他。」提摩太前書1:12

禱告：親愛的上帝，我禱告求自己在工作時有正確的態度，並且祈求我的工作能蒙祢喜悅。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

(尤榮輝譯)

Who is the Boss?

Bible Reading: Colossians 3:22-25

Wednesday, November 11, 2015

At my job, I often walk by other people’s computers. I can see that they are shopping online, watching videos or surfing the Internet instead of working. These people only do a little work. Why? Maybe they are lazy or they do not respect their co-workers. Or maybe they see that their boss doesn’t do much work either.

Our Bible Reading today shows us a completely different attitude about work. Verses 23-24 tell us, “In all the work you are given, do the best you can. Work as though you are working for the Lord, not an earthly master...Yes, you are serving Christ. He is your real Master.” As Christians, we should work to please Jesus. He is the One we are truly working for!

Maybe you don’t have a good earthly boss. But remember that we serve Jesus who knows and loves us and rewards us generously. We are here on earth to serve and honor Him! —BL

“I thank Christ Jesus our Lord because he trusted me and gave me this work of serving him. He gives me strength.” 1 Timothy 1:12

PRAYER: Dear Lord, I pray that I will have the right attitude when I work and that I will work to please You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
