The Essence of Work
Work is a form of worship to God. In the beginning, God worked to create the earth and everything. He then gave Adam the duty to work and take care of creation. God gave us work that we may remain responsible for God’s purpose for our lives. We earn a livelihood through our jobs. It also develops our character and glorifies God. Paul encouraged the Colossian church that in whatever they do, they should work with all their hearts as if working for God, not man (Col.3:23). How we act should bring glory to God.
In all this, I have given you an example that by such work, we must support the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, for he said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’
Acts 20:35 NRSV
