The law of God is love. The only sin is to not love.
The Christian lifestyle is much harder to live out, but also the most fruitful.
I know someone who lives almost every moment in misery. She complains and gossips and complains and gossips. It makes me wonder what her first thought is to herself whenever she wakes up every morning. I get tired just listening to her complaints. I can only imagine how much more tiring it is to complain and be negative. So I praise God for pursuing my heart, and allowing me to experience Him.
Every day when I go to work, I am reminded that I am also on a corporate mission, and that my service is not limited to the CFC community. It is also at work that I am faced with greatest challenges of living the Christian lifestyle. In fact, it is the place where I am challenged the most to love more. It is in the workplace that it’s easy to fall into sin and where it’s easy to forget about God.
The Lord has never forgotten about us. We need to make more effort to remember Him at all times, especially when the going gets rough.
Psalm 62
My souls rests in God alone, from whom comes my salvation.
God alone is my rock and salvation, my secure height; I shall never fall.
As though they were a sagging fence or a battered wall?
Even from my place on high, they plot to dislodge me.
They delight in lies; they bless in mouths, but inwardly they curse.
My soul, be at rest in God alone, from whom comes my hope.
God alone is my rock and my salvation, my secure height; I shall not fall.
My safety and glory are with God, my strong rock and refuge.
Trust God at all times, my people! Pour out your hearts to God our refuge!
It is only through my full trust and reliance on the Lord that I’ll truly be able to “walk the talk” as a devout Christian in the workplace, and fulfill the “corporate mission”.
