Day Twenty-Nine Forty Days of Focus: Relationships

As unto the Lord. One of the ways we worship God is through kindness and respect for people who don't deserve either. God tells us to obey our boss as if we were obeying Jesus Christ. He effectively removes the obstacles that we allow to keep us from obeying by telling us that the boss might be a poor one, but he was placed there by God and as an opportunity for us to build character and demonstrate faith. God's will for you is not that you are always happy, but that you are always growing and maturing in your relationship with Him and with others. Next time your boss is on your last nerve, remember, anyone can hate annoying behavior, but only in Christ can we love the unlovely.
