The Lord is my real boss,
and I shall not want.
He gives me peace,
when chaos is all around me.
He gently reminds me
to pray before I speak
and to do all things without
murmuring and complaining.
He reminds me that
He is my Source
and not my job.
He restores my sanity every day
and guides my decisions
that I might honor Him
in everything I do.
Even though I face
absurd amounts of
emails, system crashes,
unrealistic deadlines,
budget cutbacks,
gossiping co-workers,
discriminating supervisors,
and an aging body
that doesn’t cooperate
every morning,
I will not stop –
for He is with me!
His presence, His peace,
and His power will see me through.
He raises me up,
even when they fail to promote me.
He claims me as His own,
Even when the company
threatens to let me go.
His faithfulness and love
are better than any bonus check.
His retirement plan beats
every 401K there is!
When it’s all said and done,
I’ll be working for Him
a whole lot longer;
and for that, I bless His name.
