"Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether slave or free."
Ephesians 6: 7, 8
Recently, I changed jobs. I went from being a secretary to working in the kitchen. This new job pays less and I wear a uniform, not dressy clothes. No nail polish or jewelry is permitted. Sneakers have replaced my heels. Does what I wear make me a better or lesser person? Should I think that a menial labor job is beneath me?
Heavens, no! Unlike people, God is impartial and does not show favoritism. He cares little if I am a corporate manager or a beverage server; what matters is the goodness, kindness or gentleness that reside in my spirit, coming to fruition as I work. These are the traits that make every person successful.
