Colossians 3:17

December 2, 2011

“And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”

Paul is not telling us anything we don’t already know right here, he is simply reminding us that all we do is for the Lord.  Sometimes we can forget amongst the mundane tasks we do day to day that it is for the Lord, not to get a thank you from anyone but to show God’s love through our service to others.  All we do should be an act of giving back to God and more wholly submitting our lives to Him.  it is like our lives are a service of gratitude for the sacrifice that was made on the cross for our sins that we might have eternal life and dwell with our heavenly Father in Heaven.
