Dear Young Christian:

This week I am staying in a home where there are several young people in the family. This morning I am hearing some Monday-morning-groans and sighs as life gets going again. I suppose this is more common than I realize, as I have never been a person who has trouble getting started on Monday mornings, or any other morning of the week for that matter. However we are all unique, and we all operate at different levels of energy at different times of the day or night.

Whatever our personality or potentiality, as believers we need to keep in mind the fact that the Lord wants us to do our best in every endeavour of life, whether our home life, our school life, our personal life, or our service for Him. Here are two good verses to keep in mind as we start out on this Monday morning.

1. “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men” (Colossians 3:23).

2. “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

Your Christian Friend,

Jim Hyland
