A spirituality of work involves looking for ways to accommodate my actions and attitudes on the job with what I understand as the meaning of life.If I want to live as a Christian, I must incorporate the insight and the example of Jesus into all areas of my life, including my work.
Integrity: Am I giving of myself to the work that I do according to the compensation given me? Creativity: The level of creative energy I expend at work is an important indication of the value I assign to it. The more creative I can be on the job, the better I will like my work and myself. Creativity is self-expression, the prerequisite for self-confidence. Competence: Competence is a process of refining skills rather than a minimum standard of acceptable performance. Competence must be demonstrated. I must strive to be fully competent in the services I render. Responsibility: In my work place, what have I done to foster a sense of collective responsibility to the community and larger society? Balance: The Christian tries to be in his work, but not of it, dedicated but not addicted. He should value people over things, making a conscious effort to help advance the interests of all who are affected by his work.
