"I'm takin' what they're givin' 'cause I'm working for a livin'"
How was your day at work? TANGENT!! Ever wonder why you're NOT doing your dream job? I'll turn the question inward and say that I don't do mine because I'm not that familiar with the birds; the dream job of mine would be a bird handler...to hoist a raptor on my arm and watch him spread his wings....and then fly back to me.....wow.
I say all this about jobs, because...TOMORROW IS MY LAST DAY OF WORK!!!
Working at Lollis for the past two and a half years, I've seen many changes in my work. I went from working at Michelin full-time as a welder/fabricator's helper (thanks Big Fred), to having a field work position. When I accepted Christ a year and a half ago, He changed my work as well. I've become much more aware of details, and also my temperment has changed (read Ecclesiastes). "Is it really worth it?", "Does it really matter?"...those types of questions came to mind.
Colossians 22-25 (The Message) "Servants, do what you're told by your earthly masters. And don't just do the minimum that will get you by. Do your best. Work from the heart for your real Master, for God, confident that you'll get paid in full when you come into your inheritance. Keep in mind always that the ultimate Master you're serving is Christ. The sullen servant who does shoddy work will be held responsible. Being a follower of Jesus doesn't cover up bad work."
Just remember who you work for kids, and praise Him for the ability He gives you.
