# Colossians 3:23 and Grace **Colossians 3:23** states: "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters" (NIV). This verse teaches that grace transforms our perspective on everyday work—we labor wholeheartedly not to earn God's favor, but *because* we already serve the Lord who has shown us grace. It demonstrates how God's grace reorients our motivations from performing for human approval to joyfully serving Christ in all things.
