Therefore, my beloved, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. 1Corinthians 15:58
Father, help me to remember that the ultimate worth of the work I do is not in how others see it but in my doing it to please you. If others fail to encourage me, let me not fail to encourage them – to love others as I would want to be loved.
