Doubts see the obstacles
Faith sees the way over it.
Have a FAITH-filled day!
... My Father never stops working, and so I keep working, too. (John 5:17)
A salesman stopped to visit a client and was amazed to find a big dog emptying wastebaskets.
'All part of the job!' the dog said cheerfully.
'Does your boss know how fortunate he is to have a talking dog?' the salesman asked.
'No,' replied the dog, 'and don't tell him - or he'll have me answering phones next!'
The Bible says, '... there is nothing better than to... find satisfaction in work... these pleasures are from... God' (Ecclesiastes 2:24).
Max Lucado says, "Before God gave Adam a wife or child... He gave him a job in "the garden... to cultivate... and keep it" (Genesis 2:15)."
God deems work worthy of its own engraved commandment:
"You shall work six days, but on the seventh... you shall rest... " (Exodus 34:21).
Dr Adrian Rogers said, 'God takes ordinary people and gives them power to do extraordinary things.
Whether you put hub caps on tyres... key in data... dig ditches or wash dishes, "Work... as... for the Lord... "(Colossians 3:23).
Jesus' home was the cottage of a working man. Mending ploughs or mending souls, Jesus was doing God's work because people need houses and furniture.
Knowing you're serving the Lord puts dignity in running a machine, greasing cars, carrying mail, painting houses, or cutting grass.
Your career consumes half your life. Shouldn't it broadcast God? Don't those 40-60 hours belong to Him too?
Tell God, "I'm doing this for you and I'll do it with all my might"... That kind of attitude puts a spring in your step... You're a priest of God... in full-time service!
PRAISE GOD
BLESSED BE THE ONE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD

The Apostle's Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried, He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
