Paul writes in Colossians for "Bondservants obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eyes service, as men pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing God, and whatever you do, do it heartily as to The Lord" (Colossians 3:22-23).
Sometimes we feel like bondservants to our jobs or our families. If we have loving supportive families and bosses, it is much easier to serve. It is when our responsibilities are demanding and we feel taken for granted that serving becomes much more difficult.
It is sweet relief to refocus our attention on doing things for Christ whom we love and we know loves us. The serving tasks become much lighter.
