Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters. Colossians 3:23
I always like to say that he verse above should be every Christian's job description. If you are known around your office or wherever it is you work and constantly grumble and complain about junk what kind of an example does that set? There are those looking for work that would probably gladly take your job if qualified.
America has celebrated Labor Day since 1894 to honor workers in America. Started in actuality to celebrate Labor Unions now it is a time to celebrate working men and women. Today Labor Unions represent about 14% of the working population. Today it is more thought of as the end of summer holiday but yet it is in fact to celebrate those who work.
There is a verse in the Bible in 2 Thessalonians 3:10 that says "if a man does not work either then he should not eat" but today sadly there are those who are capable and able bodied and let government take care of them. If you have a job be thankful and never take it for granted. God has blessed you. Give Him the praise and glory.
PRAYER: I thank you Lord for my family members who work hard to help us have provisions. I thank you for all work to include even the unappreciated job of the stay home mom. I thank you for the ability to work and contribute to things in society. In Jesus' name. Amen.
