Mrs. Pete Monaghan came into the newsroom to pay for her husband’s obituary. She was told by the kindly newsman that it was a dollar a word and he remembered Pete and wasn’t it too bad about him passing away.
She thanked him for his kind words and bemoaned the fact that she only had two dollars. But she wrote out the obituary, “Pete died.”
The newsman said he thought old Pete deserved more and he’d give her three more words.
Mrs. Pete Monaghan thanked him and rewrote the obituary: “Pete died. Boat for sale.”

“Do all your work in love” (1 Corinthians 16:14 TEV).
Not some … but all of your work should be done in love. The point is, any job can be turned into worship when it is built on the model of Christ’s love; that love is expressed to co-workers, clients, and customers.
