Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:58

Sometimes, we become overwhelmed when there’s work to be done. But, we can find comfort in knowing God is pleased when we work for Him. He fills us with a Spirit of purpose and provides the way for us to serve Him with all of our hearts.

God assigns tasks which fill us with passion, as we’re grown in His grace. When we use the gifts we’re given, He takes time to prepare us for His will and lead us where we will grow. He teaches to be patient, while we wait on Him and shows us how to serve Him with a grateful heart. And, He blesses us in ways we never could have imagined. 

God will reward our efforts. He will show us how to do great things. He will honor the heart of our faithfulness and fill us with peace, if we commit to His work and learn to trust in the guiding of His everlasting love. 

Dear God, Thank you for work you provide for our lives. We will serve you with a grateful heart of gladness and trust in the plans You have for our days. And, we will welcome the joy which will come, when we have learned to honor You with the fruit of our labors. Amen
