God’s Work

What is your role in doing God’s work?
We each have a role to fulfill in serving God by doing his work. However, it is ultimately God who does the work.
God works in us. God works through us. And God works despite of us.
We do the work and God gives the growth.
The Apostle Paul wrote the church in Corinth, saying, “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor. For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's field, God's building." (1 Corinthians 3:6-9, ESV).
Each of us have a job to do to serve God. And it is God who brings about the growth in his Kingdom work. We are here to serve God as he accomplishes his work.
May we experience God’s growth together as we do the work of God in the world as God’s fellow workers.
A Collect for the Second to Last Sunday of Epiphany: World Mission Sunday: “Almighty God, through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, you revealed the way of eternal life to every race and nation: Pour out this gift anew, that by the preaching of the Gospel your salvation may reach to the ends of the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
