Bondservants, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a bondservant or is free.
A straight forward, from the shoulder from the Apostle Paul. Everything I do in the service of others is to be done as to the LORD, God the Almighty. No half measures, no 'good enoughs'; every action, every effort, every word has to be sola Gloria Deo.
Today's readings in the Psalms:
Morning: Psalm 70
