What do you think of when you think of the word worship? If you are like most people, the answer is something about singing songs in church and maybe praying during the service. But is that all there is to worship?

According to Paul, the answer is no. In Colossians 3:23 he wrote "And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men." (New King James version) That means whatever you do can be an act of worship!

Obviously this doesn't apply to everything. Anything that goes against the Bible can't be an act of worship toward God. But going about your normal day bagging groceries, driving a bus, or working in an office can be an act of worship. The key is to 1.) dedicate your time and what you are doing to God, 2.) do it in a way that glorifies Him, and 3.) remember that no matter what you do for a job or for fun, you are God's Ambassador, His representative to the world.
