Read Colossians 3:24
This verse was not spoken to kings, nobles, or high-ranking church officials—it was spoken to servants and laborers, to those engaged in humble, everyday work. Paul reminds us that no task is too lowly when done for Christ. Whether washing feet, cooking meals, tending animals, or working in a shop, every action can become holy and honorable if done with the right heart.
To serve Christ means to do everything wholeheartedly, not merely to please men, but as an act of worship to our Master. Our ordinary labors, when offered to Him, are transformed into divine service. The scullery, the barn, and the workshop become sacred places when work is done for His glory. Nothing is too small or insignificant to be consecrated to God.
Prayer:Lord, help me to see every task as an opportunity to serve You. May I do all things with diligence and love, not for human praise, but as service to Christ. Teach me to bring honor to Your name in every duty, however humble, and to rejoice that in serving You, even the simplest work becomes royal. Amen.
Bp. Paul Solomon Maglaya
