Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve. (Colossians 3:23-24, NASB)
Have you ever had a really bad boss? Yeah, me too! But it’s not him/her we ultimately work for. The Apostle Paul reminds us Who our real Boss is in his letter to the church at Colossae, excerpted above.
Having a terrible boss or supervisor can certainly be devotional. But Paul says we’re to ignore this. Instead, we’re to “work heartily, as to the Lord rather than for men.” This applies for “whatever [we] do.” Followers of Jesus should pursue excellence in all they do. Why? Because this is more attractive than the opposite. People will wonder, “What’s up with her/him?”
It’s possible they’ll want what we have! Besides, says Paul, “From the Lord you will receive the inheritance” as adopted daughters and sons of God.
This is important, because as we work to populate Heaven, we should do our part to take along as many people as possible. In Heaven, we’ll do much the same as we’re doing on earth: Serving God and others. This life serves as a dress rehearsal for the real thing. So we should practice doing our work as unto the Lord, and being the best we can be. Paul reminds us, “It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.”
Jesus followers should work then as unto the Lord. We should strive for excellence in all our pursuits. An old bumper sticker read, “My Boss is a Jewish Carpenter.” This is the attitude we should display as we proceed in the dress rehearsal for eternity in the New Jerusalem. Everything we do should be for God’s glory.Â
