Working For Jesus

Colossians 1:10

When I read about walking worthy of the Lord and bearing fruit in every good work, it reminds me that following Jesus is not just about believing, it’s about living. Fruit in our lives isn’t measured by what we know, but by how His Spirit shows through us in the everyday. It’s the gentle patience we extend when frustration sets in. Or the kindness we give to a stranger who may never return it. It’s the forgiveness we choose, when holding a grudge would be easier. And the love we offer when the world says to protect ourselves instead. Sometimes we think fruit means doing something big for God. But often it’s the small, quiet, hidden choices that please Him most. We don’t force this fruit. It grows when we stay connected to Jesus, the Vine. The Spirit transforms our impatience into gentleness, our fear into peace. The closer we walk with Him, the more natural this fruit becomes. And every act of faithfulness points people to the goodness of our God. This is what it means to live a life that truly honors the Lord.
