Work isn't just work

Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come. The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance. (1 Timothy 4:7-9 ESV)

So much of my day seems compartmentalized.  I try not to talk too much about work at home or home at work...tonight I am thinking that this may have some value from a stress management perspective, but little value else wise.  Training in godliness is not something that I ever really thought much about in the work place.  Sure, I can see the moral benefits and the needs of non-believers, I just always thought about work as ...well, work.  Time to tear down some walls and make some positive change.  Companies are made up of departments, which are just groups of people, who are themselves just individuals, who have needs, wants, struggles, joy, pain, suffering, rejoicing, and contentment.  It would be a shame to continue looking at these individuals as "just work".
