When we boast in the Lord, we highlight our weakness and glorify God as the one who intercedes in it.

How can I thank God professionally and tastefully in a business scenario? For me, it became an important topic this morning as I was writing a post for LinkedIn about my promotion. I struggled to figure out the best way to effectively bring God into the announcement in a way that didn’t seem trite or insincere.
Over the years, we’ve watched as the occasional actor or athlete directs thanks to God during an award show acceptance speech or after a big game. While most of us will never celebrate a win on national network television, gone are the days of a simple in-office announcement or a quiet dinner with family to celebrate a work promotion. Now, we update our LinkedIn profiles with a carefully crafted announcement that reaches beyond the intimate circles of our workplace or kitchen table.
