Bible Verse
 
Phil 2:12 - 18 - Lights in the World
‘"Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

Do all things without grumbling or questioning, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that I did not run in vain or labour in vain. Even if I am to be poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrificial offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all. Likewise you also should be glad and rejoice with me."

Reflection

It is often easy to grumble about situations at work, do we take these to God and ask Him to give us wisdom to deal with difficulties.

Do we allow God to work in our lives, so that we are like lights in the workplace, reflecting God's glory? Jesus is the Light of the World, we need to share that light with others. The fellowship and encouragement of other Christians is an important part of our walk with God.
