In Need Of... A job well done.

Well, another day down! And so happy I am...

I have finished moving, finally... But can I say "a job well done"? I guess I can from some angles... I got everything packed an moved and didn't break anything in the process. But where was my heart in all of this? Was I proving my Christianity? Was I being a witness to others?
I wasn't, and that's why it wasn't a job well done. I acted very selfishly. I did not do it with a joyful heart... And as many times as I acted selfishly, I was thinking, "Shannon! SMILE AND LIKE IT!"
I still feel frustrated that I had to move (and all the inconveniences that came with it) but a verse is called to mind:
Col 3:23 -- And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.
Or maybe even more appropriate:
Col 3:17 -- And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him.

Feelin' like face #5.
