Is business either a means to an end, for example opening for evangelism, or an end in itself, to bring salt and light? Either perspective can be held by a Kingdom person but for the kingdom business person the question of, “Why am I in business not out starting churches or working as a pastor?” may continually haunt. Let us assume for this article that this person is a Christian and recognizes that God is the ultimate owner of the business. Let’s also assume that the business person is a good leader, which includes treating employees and customers with respect and dignity. But why be in business why not go into social work or any other nonprofit work? Many have postulated that going into business should be as much a call as going into a professional ministry like being a church leader or a professional helper like being a social worker1. But to what does God call business people? I would like to propose a variety of callings that can all fit the roll of Kingdom business.

New Lyrics for Peter Frampton |
SHOW ME THE WAYRewritten from Frampton 1974
You know the melody, try these lyrics...I wonder why I'm reeling
There's ringing in my ears
And no one to relate to 'cept the sea
Who can I belive in
I'm kneeling on the floor
I'm looking for some grace who do I phone
The stars are out and shinning, but all I really want to know...
Oh won't you Lord to show me the way
I want you Lord ...show me the way
Well, I can see a reason
A purpose for my love
When someone puts me down and I submerge
I'm swimming in a circle
I feel I'm going down
There is God's lamb to heal my heart
Well Jesus gave us healing, but all I really want to know...
Oh won't you Lord show me the way (everyday)
I want you Lord ...show me the way
I want you Lord day after day
I wonder if I'm dreaming
I feel so unashamed
I can't belive this is happening to me
I want your spirit to work through me, and then I want to feel your love
Oh won't you Lord show me the way (everyday)
I want you Lord ...show me the way
I want you Lord day after day
Oh won't you show me the way (everyday)
I want you Lord ...show me the way
I want you Lord day after day

"This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins."
Matthew 6:9-15

23rd Psalm for the Workplace |
The Lord is my boss, and I shall not want. He gives me peace, when chaos is all around me. He gently reminds me to pray and do all things without murmuring and complaining.
He reminds me that he is my source and not my job. He restores my sanity every day and guides my decisions, that I might honor him in all that I do.
Even though I face absurd amounts of emails, system crashes, unrealistic deadlines, budget cutbacks, gossiping coworkers, discriminating supervisors, and an aging body that doesn’t cooperate every morning, I still will not stop…..for He is with me!
His presence, His peace, and His power will see me through. He raises me up, even when they fail to promote me. He claims me as His own, even when the company threatens to let me go.
His faithfulness and love are better than any bonus check. His retirement plan beats every 401K there is! And, when it’s all said an done, I’ll be working for Him a whole lot longer…..and for that, I BLESS HIS NAME!!!
Amen.
Here is the Psalm 23 .

My Worklife Prayer Lord Jesus, as I enter this workplace, I bring Your presence with me. I speak Your peace, Your grace and Your perfect order into the atmosphere of my workplace.
I acknowledge Your Lordship over all that will be spoken, thought, decided and accomplished this day.
Lord Jesus, I thank you for the gifts and skills You have deposited in me. I do not take them lightly, but commit to using them responsibly and well.
Give me a fresh supply of truth and beauty on which to draw as I do my job today. Bless my creativity, my ideas, my energy so that even my smallest task may bring You honor.
Lord, when I’m confused, guide me-when I’m weary, energize me.
Lord, when I’m burned out, infuse me with the light of Your Holy Spirit.
May the work I do and the way I do it bring hope, life and courage to all who I come into contact with today.
And oh Lord, even in this day’s most stressful moments, may I rest in You.
In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen
