Workplace Believers
Os Hillman had a great article in his TGIF (Today God is First) email this morning. See an excerpt below:
Today we find many Christian workplace believers living a status quo relationship with God that is more characterized as “business as usual” than a life demonstrating God’s power. Our focus is often more concerned with improving our standard of living than improving the Kingdom of God through our circle of influence. While this takes place, millions upon millions die without the saving grace of Christ. Many other Christians die never experiencing the freedom in Christ that His blood paid for. God has called each of us to live for a cause greater than ourselves - a life that is dependent on His grace and power to achieve things we never thought possible through our lives. This is His plan for your life. The apostle Paul prayed that He might experience the power of the resurrection in his life. This power is available to you and me to live for a cause greater than ourselves. Ask God what He wants to achieve through your life today. And consider yourself dead already to the consequences of what that might mean for you.

This is a good post Daniel. It kind of reminds me of Moses(Psalms 90) When he talks about we count are days wisely. We never know what’s going to happen to us and the only thing that matters is what we used this life for. Building up the kingdom or building up ourselfs.
