1 Corinthians 15:58 NASB "Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be firm, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."Did you catch the theme of the week? Today's verse and all week the theme has been hard work and labor. As we head into Labor Day weekend, I wonder how our labor practices are? Do we work unto the Lord or are we working for our benefit? Do we try and cut corners so our profit is higher? Tough questions to ask ourselves but they need to be asked. My father in law said to me that I wasn't charging enough in my handyman business, that I needed to charge more but my reply was that I was more interested in helping those in need than making money. We should ask ourselves "what's our motivation in our labor practices?!" Is it to honor Him or ourselves?! BTW, thank God for the job, believe it or not, it's a blessing to have a place to go to work! peace, tom
