Workplace ministry: Keep the main thing the main thing!!

It is amazing and a privilege that God is pleased to use us even with all our shortcomings. As Josh Harris points out on a recent blog post here, God certainly does not need us, but he does use us for his purposes. Since he does, we should be fervent in our work for him in the workplace.

In our workplace fellowship this morning we were discussing how often we tend to focus on temporal matters of job difficulty or company problems forgetting that we are here, despite all that stuff, to be used by God to accomplish what HE wants to accomplish. Of course our workplaces have difficulties. But in light of eternity….SO WHAT!

Missionaries in the jungle don’t complain about too much rain, and those of us in the mission field of the workplace need to realize that we’re here for something way beyond today’s business problems.
