Day Twenty-Eight Forty Days of Focus: Relationships

Why did God put you in the particular place where you work? Have you ever considered that your work place is one of the greatest opportunities for other people to see your life and testimony? Most of us spend more time at work than any other place during the week. The work environment lends its self to relationship building as common tasks are completed and obstacles are overcome. We are able to see each other handle success and face failure. I can't think of a better mission field than the place where you work. Live your faith out loud. No one likes a big talker, but an honest, hard-working, self-sacrificing person of faith is an asset to everyone. Bring your passion and faith to work with a heavy dose of humility and grace and you will find that your place of work is a vocation more than an occupation. The amount of money you make and the fulfillment you find in your job will pale in comparison to the joy you have in seeing eternal life change in your co-workers.
