Who am I Serving?

Colossians 4:17, 23-24

"And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men…it is the Lord Christ you are serving."

I was reminded by these verses this morning that everything I do is to bring honor to our Lord, HE is the one I am serving! Grocery shopping, cooking, washing our never ending pile of dishes, doing laundry, spraying (yes-spraying poop off!) diapers, folding clothes, sweeping- all of these daily chores can be performed as an act of service and worship to my Father! How often I forget this and need to be reminded again and again. He is my audience and glorifying Him should be my focus-and joy!
