Love/HateShembull

Have you ever had a chance to see the world through a pair of different colored sunglasses? That simple switch has the power to change your entire perspective on the world around you! The same can be true when it comes to our faith. Perspective, or how we see things, matters. Our lives are full of demands put on us by school, work, and family. And it’s easy to see those things as keeping us from doing what we were made to do or want to do. 

In this letter to the Colossians, Paul encourages us to see ALL the work before us as part of God’s call on our lives. And when we do this, our perspective shifts. We suddenly see even the “have-to’s” in our lives with more purpose, love, and meaning. This week, pray that God would help you see the world through His filter. Ask Him to change your perspective so that you are motivated by Him rather than
the world.
