And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Writing about Kingdom Service for a month is a bit tricky since we're called as followers of Christ to do EVERYTHING as an act of worship and service for the King.
It really boils down to a matter of the heart and the motives from which our service outward stem.
A person who offers their life to Christ each morning and asks, "Lord, how would you like to live through me today? I'm at your service," might be at home raising children, working in politics, flipping burgers at McDonald's, entering the doors of their junior high, or heading off to any number of jobs, schools, and appointments in a day.
In contrast, a person can be in full-time Christian ministry with the driving motivation being approval or personal success and completely miss the heart of Kingdom Service.
So, as we head off into this day, allow whatever you do or say this day to be done as an act of love and service to Christ the King!
