Work Ethic Notes to Remember

This quote does not really go with the mission of this blog... but... I like what it says and want to remember it. Quoted from Our Daily Bread devotional:

READ: Ephesians 6:1-6

• "Believers, have a much higher calling when it comes to dealing with employers. In the Scriptures, we are encouraged to exhibit a respectful attitude toward those who supervise us. "
• Ephesians 6:5-6 (NLT) - "Slaves, obey your earthly masters with deep respect and fear. Serve them sincerely as you would serve Christ. Try to please them all the time, not just when they are watching you. As slaves of Christ, do the will of God with all your heart."
• "Whatever task you find to do, regardless if it’s big or small, perform it well, with all your heart, because there’s One who sees it all. —Sper"
• "No matter who your boss is, you are really working for God."

The Lord's Help Fills me with JOY

Psalm 28:7 (NLT)
"The Lord is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving."

Our Present trouble won't last long...

2 Corinthians 4:17

"For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!"
