Scripture: Daniel 6

Daniel's life is a beautiful representation in the Bible of 'Coram Deo' - a life lived 'before the face of God' - for the glory of God. Our vocation as well as the skill to do it is a blessing from God and to be used for His glory. And today's passage teaches us the right godly attitude towards work when we see it as something sacred and as blessing from God and do everything for His glory.

The vocation that God entrusted Daniel was to serve as a government administrator - like the IAS of today. He started young (in his teens) but he kept learning & growing at his workplace. Kings came & went, kingdoms rose and fell. Daniel stayed on. He is now 90 years old and this chapter is a culmination of Daniel's story from which we can learn how each of us should approach our God-given vocation.

Scripture: Acts 4:36

To encourage others is not just a suggestion from the Lord - It's a command. We might think that to encourage is to appreciate someone with a few sweet words and that's where it ends. But there is much more to it, as we see from the life of Barnabas, the Son of Encouragement. Are we intentional in encouraging others? Do we allow the Lord to use our lives to reach out to the lives of people around us and do we think of them in the light of God's Eternal Kingdom?

Scripture: 1 Peter 5:5-7

The Bible teaches us that "God opposes the proud" and that we should therefore "humble ourselves". But how do we do that? We can praise God that He did not just instruct us to be humble but also told us how. Let's together discover some practical steps to cultivate humility
