【双语灵修】凡事尽心竭力GIVING OUR BEST IN ALL WE DO

歌罗西书 3:23 3月7日

无论做什么，都要从心里做，像是给主做的，不是给人做的。

凡事尽心竭力

“无论做什么，都要从心里做，像是给主做的，不是给人做的。” -西 3:23

当我思考尽心竭力是什么意思时，我想起了一位亲爱的朋友，他是一位牧师，他每次讲道都全身心地投入，不是为了掌声或认可，而是为了荣耀神。他的奉献精神激励我以同样的方式对待我的工作和服侍。

在职场上，我见证了一位同事做事总是不遗余力，不是为了升职或表扬，而是出于真正的热情和责任感。他的榜样教晓我卓越和奉献的重要性。

看到这些现实生活中的例子，我逐渐明白，尽心竭力不仅仅是为了达到期望，更是带着全心全意的努力和奉献去超越期望。

《歌罗西书》3章23节呼应了这一观点，敦促我们做事要像是为主做的，而不是为了获得他人的认可。这是一种心态的转变，是将例行事务转化为有意义的敬拜之举。

耶稣是尽心竭力的终极典范，祂以怜悯去服侍，医治病人，带着权柄去教导。祂的一生体现了全心全意的奉献和服侍。

祷告

天父，求祢赐予我们追求卓越的精神，教导我们如何尽心竭力去做好事情。藉着那些以奉献和热情来荣耀你的榜样激励我们。愿我们的努力也能荣耀祢的名。奉耶稣的名祈求，阿们。

GIVING OUR BEST IN ALL WE DO

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters." - Colossians 3:23

As I think about what it means to give our best, I am reminded of a dear friend, a pastor who poured his heart into every sermon—not for applause or recognition but to honor God. His dedication inspired me to approach my work and service in a similar way.

In the workplace I witnessed a colleague who consistently went above and beyond—not for promotions or praise but out of genuine passion and commitment. His example taught me the value of excellence and dedication.

Considering these real-life examples, I’ve come to understand that giving our best is about more than just meeting expectations—it’s about exceeding them with wholehearted effort and dedication.

Colossians 3:23 echoes this sentiment, urging us to work as for the Lord, not for human approval. It’s a mindset shift that transforms mundane tasks into meaningful acts of worship.

Jesus, the ultimate example of giving one’s best, served with compassion, healed people who were sick, and taught with authority. His life exemplified wholehearted dedication and service.

Heavenly Father, grant us a spirit of excellence. Teach us to give our best in all we do, inspired by the examples of people who have honored you through their dedication and passion. May our efforts bring glory to your name. In Jesus, Amen.
