Life is about doing your best, not someone else’s best but your best in all things. It is taking pride in what you do.

What do you do carelessly, superficial, hit-or-miss, sketchy, or any which way? Washing dishes, doing laundry, dusting, folding clothes, putting clothes way, cooking, yard work, schoolwork, work, taking care of yourself? Is it because you are not invested in what you are doing? Is it because you do not want to do what you are doing? So, you just do it halfway, just to get it done? And then say, “I did it!” But in reality, you did not put your whole effort into the task at hand. Anything worth doing is worth doing well. Doing things half-heartedly does not reveal your self-worth nor self-integrity. Colossians 3:23 reads, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” Ecclesiastes 9:10 tells us, “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might.” Life is about doing your best, not someone else’s best but your best in all things. It is taking pride in what you do. What I have found is I pray over what I am doing. Such as folding clothes, I pray for the person who will wear the clothes I am folding. When cooking I pray over the food I am cooking so it will bless the person who is eating the food. When I am pulling weeds, mowing the lawn, planting flowers, I pray that yard will bless all who see it. You get the picture; in all things, in all that we do, we are to glorify God. Thus, we do our best! It is something to think about! God Bless. Amen.
