He did, though, care how I did it.
Many times in life you can miss the mark because of fear or worldly distraction, but we must always remember that an all-knowing, omnipresent God who knows beginning to end holds our life in His hand. Despite missteps or mistakes, He’s always known and redirects our paths for His purposes. We can’t put too much weight on ourselves, but understand He always works it out for His purposes and to our best interest.
In the end, it doesn’t matter what I do as a job, but rather how I do the job I have. No matter my work or vocation my biggest role in this life is to be a light of God’s love and spread His heart wherever I go. Whether on a stage or at the hospital bedside, it’s my attitude at work and of service that matters to my Father. I have no regrets for the direction my life has taken, and I am grateful for each moment.
Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV) “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.”
So, I sing at work. I sing because it makes me happy, and it seems to make those I encounter happy as well. Perhaps that’s all God wanted in the first place. Whether on stage or off, to sing with a joyful heart.
