Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.

ROMANS 12:11

LET us begin from this moment to acknowledge Him in all our ways, and do
everything, whatsoever we do, as service to Him and for His glory,
depending upon Him alone for wisdom, and strength, and sweetness, and
patience, and everything else that is necessary for the right
accomplishing of all our living. It is not so much a change of acts that
will be necessary, as a change of motive and of dependence. The house
will be kept, or the children cared for, or the business transacted,
perhaps, just the same as before as to the outward, but inwardly God
will be acknowledged, and depended on, and served; and there will be all
the difference between a life lived at ease in the glory of His
Presence, and a life lived painfully and with effort apart from Him.
There will result also from this bringing of God into our affairs a
wonderful accession of divine wisdom in the conduct of them, and a far
greater quickness and despatch in their accomplishment, a surprising
increase in the fertility of resource, and an enlargement on every side
that will amaze the hitherto cramped and cabined soul.
