Who we work for determines the significance of what we do. As image-bearers, we reflect our Creator by using all our faculties to creatively do our jobs well. So, we need to realize that all kinds of work may be understood as creative acts, whether it be studying, teaching, housework, engineering, nursing, business, or the more obvious creative work of music, drama, and the visual arts.
It is in the serving of our Creator and Savior that we find real significance: “You are serving the Lord Christ,” (Colossians 3:24). Therefore, we have great freedom to use our abilities in whatever work we choose to do. When we commit our work to God and give it our best effort, we may be sure to sense his pleasure.
