Reward of faithfulness.

"And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful steward, the wise man whom his master will set over those in his household service to supply them their allowance of food at the appointed time? Blessed (happy and to be envied) is that servant whom his master finds so doing when he arrives. Truly I tell you, he will set him in charge over all his possessions."
Luke 12:42-44(AMP)

Do your work as though you are working for Jesus. Do you resume early and are you the last to leave? In America, it has been observed that when people want to leave their company for someone to run on their behalf; they give it to the person who comes the earliest and leaves last. So be the first to resume and the last to leave wherever you work.

Be the man or woman that can be trusted. Let money not be your motivation for diligence in your service where you work. Let your commitment to Christ and your understanding of these teachings be your motivation to work diligently. Anybody can work for money, but few people serve from the heart. Be counted among that few.

I heard the story about a corporation in America whose owner was looking for a successor. He appointed the least person in that corporation. Why did he do that? It was because the man resumed earliest and was the last to leave. He does anything he is told to do, and he was always ready to work. That character he exhibited over time caused him to be trusted by his boss. He was put in charge of the corporation instead of the man's sons because they could not be trusted.

Can you be trusted? Or do you always need to be supervised before you work? Do you work only when your boss is around? If you are that way, you will not go far. Learn to be committed to whatever has been assigned to you with a perfect heart.

Prayer.

Dear Father, I ask that you give me a sincere heart to will and to do of your good pleasure always in Jesus Name, Amen.
