I don't need my name in lights

I love the song "He Knows My Name" by Francesca Battistelli.  It was on yesterday and it hit me hard.

We all want to hear "You do a great job". We all want praise of some kind...do we need our name in lights to see that we are doing a good job?  Well this is what I want to hear..."His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come & share your master's happiness'". ~ Matthew 25: 21 NIV

Have I been faithful with what has been given to me?  Job, family, finances, church family, girl scout troop, and so on {in no order of preferences}.

1. Job: Then it hit me do I really work at my job for my boss to say well done?  I know that I am not the only one that does these things...scrolling through facebook- when I should be working {it was only a suppose to be a few minutes but turned into twenty}. We texted a friend the night before and they still haven't gotten back with you so you are "glued to your phone".  "Slaves obey your early masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heat and reverence for the Lord. Whatever you do, work at it with all you heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving, Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for their wrongs, and there is no favoritism." ~Colossians 3: 22-25
2. Family: Proverbs 31:10-31 really speaks to me...Am I doing enough to earn my husband & daughter's praise? 
3. Finances: eww that is a tough one.,,I really mean that. I know that I am irresponsible with that one..Eccl 5:10, 1 Tim 6:6-10, and many more.

These are just notes for me but if you find help in my words...that is great. If you want to leave comments on how you "manage your time" that would be a great help for me. 

I have thought about blogging this all night last night. Have a great day.
