Ephesians 6:6

Try to please them all the time, not just when they are watching you. As slaves of Christ, do the will of God with all your heart.
Ephesians 6:5-8 The Message (MSG)
Servants, respectfully obey your earthly masters but always with an eye to obeying the real master, Christ. Don’t just do what you have to do to get by, but work heartily, as Christ’s servants doing what God wants you to do. And work with a smile on your face, always keeping in mind that no matter who happens to be giving the orders, you’re really serving God. Good work will get you good pay from the Master, regardless of whether you are slave or free.
