Will It Honor Jesus' Name?

“…do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus…”
—Colossians 3:17b

It is good to have a standard against which we can measure what we say and what we do. The Apostle Paul offered such a standard in Colossians 3:17:

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.

Let us choose this day to measure what we say and do against this standard: will it be worthy for our Savior’s name? As one of His chosen and dearly loved children, will what we do and what we say bring honor to Him? Using such a standard will help us guard our minds, hearts, pens, and tongues.
