Stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 

- 1 Corinthians 15:58

Doing work for the Kingdom is not always easy.

There are days where we feel exhausted, overlooked, unnoticed and maybe even ignored.

However, the work we put in for God’s kingdom and His glory never goes unnoticed.

You are seen, heard, noticed, and loved by God.

Even though it can be hard to stay on the ‘set apart’ narrow path God calls us to, we have hope in the eternal reward that awaits us.

Have you felt exhausted lately? Has work made you weary?

God invites you to come to Him in your weariness, where He promises to refresh you and give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

Invite the Lord into your workspace, and thank Him for His grace.

Be encouraged today knowing that the work you have done, are doing and will do are never in vain! Nothing done for His glory is ever wasted!

Take heart in knowing that the Lord sees and hears you. He takes great notice and pays great attention to every detail of your life.

“Lord, thank you for strengthening me and helping me to continue working for your glory. I know that nothing I do for you goes unnoticed under your watchful care.”  

With Love,
