What do you think? This was the thought in my devotional this morning. I really like it. During my younger days when my work and my kids’ schedules were so crazy, I often got down on myself for not working harder to find prayer and study time in my day. I think this view of work, would have made me feel so much better. Here at Managed Senior Care we focus all the time on how the work you do, when done in His honor will bring him glory. How empowering if you also thought of your work as your prayer; Your own opportunity to communion with God.
Give it a shot this week. I would love to hear if it made any difference for you. I am going to practice it this week too. I’ll let you know how it goes.
