At your workplace, do you see yourself as Christ’s ambassador? Being an ambassador for Christ means properly representing Him in whatever you do, including at work. You represent God as you go about doing your job.
What kind of ambassador are you? Matthew 5:14-16 says, “You are the light of the world…Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” No matter how difficult or challenging your workload or workplace environment, every day is an exciting new opportunity to give the people around you a positive representation of God and the Christian life.
God, may I represent You well at work-by humbly serving others and by performing my assigned tasks without complaint and with excellence and joy—“for I serve the Lord Christ” (Colossians 3:24). Amen.
