To be a freed SLAVE of our God is to be a devoted
SERVANT whose WORK is WORSHIP - so, "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"

“Whatever
you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men,
since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward.
It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” - Colossians 3:23-24
As the Biblical feast of
Pesach (Passover) ends on Thursday, we are reminded of the deliverance of the
Jewish people from the land of Egypt where they had served as slaves.
The word for slaves in
Hebrew is "avadim", which, interestingly, is also the
same word for "servants."
Pesach recalls to us our
own personal deliverance from the slavery of sin -- and the amazing joy and
privilege of being free to be servants of the Living God who redeemed us.
The same root letters
which form the words for "slave" and "servant" also give us
the word "avodah", the Hebrew word for
"work", which is also a word that means "worship"!
So, "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." [Colossians 3:23-24]
