What happens when we view our work as a good thing from God? When you count your blessings, do you include your work?

What happens when your neatly planned life is turned upside down by unexpected events? Sometimes things happen we can’t plan for and our only choice is to respond in the best way possible.

Whether the CEO, the accountant, the mechanic, the pastor or the janitor – or any other job title, for that matter – in our masterpiece work, we have the privilege of connecting the world to God’s presence by being who He created us, living out our true identity.

Leadership is a crucible of self-awareness. As a leader, you’re out front, visible; that’s a key part of being a leader. If others can’t see you, they can’t possibly follow you. That visibility can be a benefit and a curse.

We are not machines!  We are human beings and we cannot keep a pace of perpetual motion if we expect to make our best contribution to our work, our family, our community.
