The sun is setting here in Georgia, and it feels pretty good. I hear birds rustling in the dead leaves as the last light of the day fades. I slept most of today something I’m learning to do more of. Resting on the Sabbath has been a journey for me, one I’m still figuring out. What does it really mean to stop working? I like to write my blogs on the Sabbath, so as I sit here with my coffee, a thought hits me: Work as unto the Lord.

I’ve talked about the Sabbath plenty of times. I’ve talked about working unto the Lord plenty of times. But today, I realized something new about this concept. It  requires me to remove myself from the equation.

Let me explain.

We all have this tendency to prove things to ourselves, to those around us, to the doubters who think we’re crazy for believing in something bigger than what we see. We want to validate our dreams, to show that what we hope for isn’t just wishful thinking, but something real, something we’re actively working toward every single day.

But when you truly work as unto the Lord, none of that matters. The validation, the recognition, the approval of others. It all fades because it’s no longer about them. It’s about an audience of One. And while I’ve known this for a long time, I realize now that I still struggle with it.

Maybe writing this today is my confession. But it also brings me clarity.

Resting today has reminded me of something deeper: pride always tries to get in the way. The Bible tells us that God despises pride but gives grace to the humble. And what’s more humbling than working as unto the Lord, knowing that no one else needs to see or acknowledge it?

I had a list of blogs I wanted to write today. This one wasn’t on the schedule, but it needed to be written.

Whoever you are, whenever you read thisremember to work as unto the Lord. Seek Him first in all things. Draw your strength from Him. Be grateful for your life, for the daily provision He gives, and for the work He has called you to do. Whatever He has placed in you to create, do it with everything you have.
