Reflecting Christ in Everyday Moments

Scripture

“And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” —Colossians 3:17 (NIV)

Devotional

We often think of reflecting Christ as something reserved for big, spiritual moments—leading worship, sharing our testimony, or going on a mission trip. But the truth is, one of the most powerful ways we reflect Jesus is through the everyday choices we make: how we respond to stress, how we treat a coworker, how we speak to our family when we’re tired.

God isn’t just glorified in the extraordinary. He delights in our obedience and love shown through ordinary moments—folding laundry, driving to work, helping a neighbor. Each small act done in His name shines His light.

When we live with intentionality, asking ourselves, “How can I reflect Christ right here, right now?” our lives become mirrors of His love, peace, and grace to a watching world. People may never step into a church, but they will see Jesus through how we live.

So today, whether you’re washing dishes or making decisions at work, do it with Jesus in mind. Let your everyday become holy ground.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, help me to reflect You not just in the big moments, but in the little ones too. May my words, actions, and attitude point others to Your love. Teach me to live with Your presence at the center of everything I do. Amen.
