After two tough weeks at work, today I want to share this devotional with you from my book, Devotions for Working Women. I encourage you to not get weary in well doing.
God Does Not Forget How Hard You Work for Him
# 177
Hebrews 6:10 (NLT)
For God is not unfair. He will not forget how hard you have worked for him and how you have shown your love to him by caring for other Christians, as you still do.
Sometimes you may feel you are wasting your time and energy by being a good worker in your company because you feel it’s not making a difference. Other times you may feel that what you’re doing for another person, at work or outside of work, whether they are a Christian or not, is not worth continuing because you don’t feel appreciated.
Don’t get weary in working hard for the Lord. Dedicate your natural, as well as spiritual, work to Him. God is a fair God, and He will not take for granted or forget the time and effort you invest when working hard for Him. He notices it and appreciates it.
The Bible says in verse 12 that if you work hard, “Then you will not become spiritually dull and indifferent. Instead, you will follow the example of those who are going to inherit God’s promises because of their faith and patience.” Therefore, continue working hard for the Lord with the expectation that this promise will come to pass in your life.
