UNTO CHRIST, NOT UNTO MEN
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. (Colossians 3:23-24)
Walk-Line: One of the things we forget as Christians is that Jesus Christ is to be Lord of our lives. Not just Savior, but Lord. In all aspects of our lives, the Lord Jesus is to honored and obeyed. In our relationships with others, we are to treat people as the Lord would have us to. We are not be slothful, or apathetic in our work, and in our dealings with people. But we are to "work at it with all your heart." And with those we have a problem with, we are to show love, and concern, when the tendency is to fight, and get back at those who hurt us in some way. Remember, our inheritance, our reward is from the Lord, and not from men.
Remember As God's people,
That we are called to be.
In whatever we do, we are to do it heartily.
It is "unto Christ", and "not unto men",
that we receive our reward.
An inheritance kept for us in heaven,
a promise from God above!
