Short Devotional about Do what you love
Introduction
Do you ever feel as though your everyday tasks are draining you, causing you to lose passion for what you’re doing? Well, you’re not alone. Many of us end up in places where the joy seems to have vanished, and we’re merely existing rather than fully living. The good news is – it doesn’t have to be this way. We are designed to be joyously productive, to do what we love, and love what we do.
This devotional is dedicated to rediscovering what sparks joy in our lives and aligning it with God’s purpose for us. We are meant to perform our work with love and passion, bringing glory to God. So, let’s uncover the biblical perspective about this and find ways to make our lives more meaningful and joyful.
Bible Verse
“May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us—yes, establish the work of our hands.” – Psalm 90:17 (NIV)
Meaning
This verse is a powerful prayer and reminder that everything we do should bear witness to God’s goodness and the favor He offers us. We are encouraged to ask God to bless our work and make it fruitful, to ensure that what we love doing positively impacts others and brings honor to His name. It’s not just about picking a job or a hobby; it’s about discerning where God has gifted us and using these gifts to serve Him.
Doing what you love doesn’t necessarily mean an easy life or a prosperous one in earthly terms. But it does mean a rich and fulfilling life where your passions are aligned with God’s will and your activities bring you true happiness. We are called to fulfill our purpose joyously and not grudgingly, for in doing so, we honor God and His blessings upon us.
