Decisions of a Working Woman
Reading: Ephesians 6:5-9
“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might” (Eccl 9:10)
1. I decide to give top priority to God like Lydia. Work is only next to God and family. I will not be slack about my devotional time, and give excuses of over-work, tiredness, lack of time, etc.
2. I decide to give next priority to my family. I will not give excuses for negligence of my family. I will plan the day and not waste time. I will refresh myself and be pleasant at home. I will not be separated from my husband or children for an attractive salary.
3. I decide to be devoted to my work during the working hours. I shall do my work neatly, scrupulously and without mistakes to the best of my ability in the presence or absence of the superior. I will not be late for work. I will not misuse working hours for any personal work or waste the time day-dreaming, chatting or dozing.
4. I decide to be submissive to my superiors, to the good and gentle as well as the rough and rude. I will respect them. I will obey them sincerely, pleasantly, wholeheartedly and not half-heartedly with murmuring, unwillingly. I will not backbite.
5. I decide to consider my authorities as delegates of God and therefore not question their every move like Phebe (Rom 16:1). I will pray for my superiors daily and that God should direct me through them. I will not obey the sinful demands of my ungodly authorities but boldly take my stand.
6. I decide to look to God for the rewards of my labours. I will not blame my authorities for my situation nor judge them but commit the matter to God. I will look to God for promotion. I will boldly accept my mistakes and gladly take the due punishment.
7. I decide to maintain a good relationship with all my coworkers. I will smile at and greet them every morning. I will not hesitate to help them whenever possible. I will not be quick to judge them.
8. I decide to be careful about my movements with the male colleagues. I will not be a source of temptation to them. I will be friendly with them but with all purity. I will dress modestly to work.
9. I decide to be careful with my salary. I will bring it to my husband (or parents) and pray and decide the budget for the month. I decide to set aside a portion for God and the poor. I will not go into debt. I will send some money to my parents in gratitude.
10. I decide to come out of my inferiority complex. I will not believe the devil’s lie that I am useless and my work is nothing, but whatever is given in my hand to do I will do it with all my might.
