Some
people hate their work and feel sick just thinking about it. Others find
meaning and purpose doing any type of work. For them, wasting time is out of
the question. However don't confuse relaxation with idleness, for leisure is required
for healthy living. Ecclesiastes 10:18 reminds us that laziness produces trouble.
"If a man is lazy, the rafters sag; if his hands are idle, the roof
leaks."
If you despise your work, trouble and
hardship may show its face unless you adjust your attitude. You can choose to
change by allowing yourself to develop a positive attitude toward your work. You
can refuse to be negative by choosing to see your work as God's provision for you
and your family. Ask yourself, "How can I be helpful to those I work with each
day?"
Pay
attention to your co-workers. Determine to be a role model of the love and
compassion God has shown you through Christ Jesus. He endured the Cross to save
you and give you a life worth living. Would you begin demonstrating this attitude
and see what God will do with it?
