Greetings All

Greetings in the Providing Name of Jesus Christ! According to a recent headline, there are 100 million working age Americans without a job. Some Americans have had many jobs in their careers. A few Americans have had only 3 or 4 jobs in there careers. Still fewer Americans have been blessed with a job held for many years. I have worked for the same company for 28 years. I have often wished I could change, maybe work for a company that interests me more, doing something I enjoy. BUT, I am also profoundly thankful to God for this job I have. My company has been very tolerant of a longtime illness that would have surely seen me released from other jobs. My job has afforded me a very good living as well, with more than ample vacation time. All this to say that I thank you, Lord, for my position, and I am sorry for all of the complaining I have done! If you are in a job that you are not happy with, and you can change it, go ahead! No sin there! But if you are in a job that you cannot change, try thanking God often for your position. After all, we are working for God! 1 Corinthians 15:58 reads, "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." Now is the Time to Worship! May God Richly Bless You All, My Beloved!
