A recent article by McKinsey & Company noted that nearly two thirds of US-based employees who were surveyed said that COVID-19 has caused them to reflect on their purpose in life. Nearly half said that they’re reconsidering the kind of work they do because of the pandemic. The research stated that people who live their purpose at work are more productive than people who don’t. They’re also healthier, more resilient, and more likely to stay with the company.

When employees feel that their purpose is aligned with the organization’s purpose, the benefits expand to include stronger employee engagement, heightened loyalty, and a greater willingness to recommend the company to others. God gives us the privilege of partnering with Him in His kingdom work. It’s incredible that He gives us the joy of giving, and in doing so we find our purpose in life. God could have accomplished His mission of saving sinners without the aid of mankind. However, He knew that we couldn’t be happy without being part of the great work that would cultivate in us self-denial, compassion, kindness, and goodness—in other words, the Fruit of the Spirit. Today, let’s practice our purpose in life by partnering with God in Kingdom work.
