Ephesians 6:7 NASB "With goodwill render service, as to the Lord, and not to people," I must have answered her questions a hundred times! Today's Word speaks to us about where our focus is when it comes to serving others! Our granddaughter loves the word "why" and as I began to answer each of her "whys", I began to ask myself the same question. Why this grandpa and why that grandpa - it became almost comical. When I took time to think of the answers to the whys, I began to see that she was just curious as to why we were doing what we were doing. Stopping and asking ourselves why we do what we do, for what purpose are we doing it, and what is the "real" reason should be answered by today's verse -it is to bring God the glory not ourselves. When the answer to why we do it, becomes to make ourselves look better or to get the praise, we've lost sight of Him and made ourselves more important. Take a moment and ask why we are doing what we are doing! peace, tom
