Friday: The Gospel that Paul declared to the Corinthians was neither invented nor false but was the true saving message that the other eyewitnesses had transferred to him from them. Saturday: Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament’s prophecy concerning the death, burial, and resurrection of the Messiah to come. Pray without Ceasing – Flash Prayer for the Day We cling, dear Father, to the Gospel that the apostle Paul preached, the same Gospel in which we stand, and will hold fast till the end. Weekly Reflection on the Priesthood of All Believers Romans 12:1 suggests worship is living in a mindset of surrender to God’s will. Such a mindset will allow work itself to be an act of worship. As workplace priests, we understand that ultimately our accountability is to God and thus we always strive to act in ways that please and glorify God at all times . . . no matter what we do and no matter if anyone is watching or not. . . . It does not matter if we clean toilets or lead a Fortune 500 company—either way, work can be, but is not automatically, worship. It depends on our attitude. For work to be worship we need to realign our attitude towards work so that it is consistent with God’s vision of work. ~ Scott Breslin, Embracing Our Priestly Nature at Work: A Theology and Practice for Ordinary Saints.
