Whether we work at home or at the office, the attribute of graciousness still applies to us. Our sphere of influence is far-reaching:
“Any job, regardless of how well it fits, gives us an opportunity to live our primary calling by being God’s representative in the workplace. In any job, we are called daily to exhibit a gracious attitude of service toward our boss, coworkers, customers, and others. We are called to avoid gossiping, complaining, speaking unkindly about people, lying, and cheating by not working diligently and to the best of our ability. . . In our job, as in every aspect of our lives, we are called to be God’s people.” ~ Kevin & Kay Marie Brennfleck, authors of Live Your Calling

I like this verse: Colossians 3:23 “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.” It reminds me that in order to keep all of those things in check that were mentioned in your post, I have to remember who I’m working to please in the first place. When you put God in the right place, things seem to fall in line.
