Psalm 78:72 says “And David shepherded them with integrity of heart and with skillful hands, he led them.” Several years ago, I attended a dinner meeting with the topic being, how Christians can integrate their faith to have an impact at work. That night, the speaker made a statement that impacted my life ever since. He said, “We must be very very people.” What he was saying was that we must be very biblical and we must be very professional.
Today’s verse tells us that David was not only a man of integrity, but he worked with excellence. As people who are living for the Lord, we must be very biblically oriented, understand what the Bible has to say about work, and we must be very good at what we do. In other words, we must be very very.
The most important thing that we can do to live out our faith in the marketplace is to earn credibility. And the best way to earn credibility is to be the very best at what we do. We ought to be at the top of our fields as Christians, and we ought to honor the Lord every step of the way by doing the right things the right way.
Today and every day, let’s be very very people. If you do this, you will be applying the truth at work.
