Love Me.Hate Me.It Won't Break Me.

don't look up just let them think

there's no place else you'd rather be in now

you can't turn back

because this road is all you'll ever have

Music saves our souls

If you let me I could, I'd show you how to build your fences

Everyone has a job to do - by Stormie Omartian

It doesn't matter if you are a stay-at-home mom, a full time student, A CEO of a giant corporation, a single woman who is self-supporting, a married woman running a home, a skilled career woman, a disabled person, a baby-sitter, a house sitter, a single woking mom, or a volunteer at the rescue mission downtown- you have work to do. It doesn't matter if your work is recognized by the whole world or only God sees it. It doesn't matter if you are getting paid big bucks or receiving no financial compensation whatsoever. Your work is valuable. And you want it to be blessed by GOD.
�
Whatever work we do, we want to do it well and be successful. When our work is good, it gives us fulfillment. When we accomplish something worthwhile that makes life better for ether people, our families, or ourselves, it gives is satisfaction. But when work of our hands is not blessed, we are weighed down with frustration and unfulfillment.
The ideal woman describes in the bible is a hard worker ( proverbs 31). She buys and sells property ( a real state agent?). She plants a vineyard ( a landscaper?). She makes clothing ( a designer?). And she sells it ( manager of a clothing store?). She's a woman of strength, energy , and vision who worls hard into the night and knows that what she has to offer is good. God wants us to experience that kind of success and satisfaction. BUt it doesn't happen without prayer.

Prayer helps us to find �the balance between being "greedy for grain," which depletes our life ( proverbs 1:19), and having a "slack hand," which makes us poor ( proverbs 10:4). Prayer helps us to not "overwork to be rich" ( proverbs 23:4-5) �yet still be diligent in our work, which may ultimately bring us monetary rewards ( proverbs 10:4). Prayer helps us finds the balance between laziness and obsession, between gaining the whole world and losing our own soul ( Matthew 16:26)
�
The bible says that " the laborer is worthy of his wages" (1 Timothy 5:18). This means you deserve to be paid or rewarded for your work. Sometimes the reward is i the actual doing of it itself. You don't get paid for maintaining a home, serving soup at the rescue mission, or teaching a child to tie his shoes, but your reward for seeing the result of your labor is priceless."The labor of the righteous leads to life" ( proverbs 10:16)
�
If you have a paying job, don't hesitate to pray that you will be compensated fairly and generously. Pray for your employer to be blessed in his business so he in turn can afford to pay all employees well. Pray that your work is recognized and appreciated by others. Pray to receive promotions and advancement in line with God's will. Say, "Lord, I would like to have that promotion and that raise if it's Your will for my life." As you pray that way and commit your work to the Lord, He will bless it.
�
No matter what your paycheck reflects, your work is important to God, it's important to other, and it's important to you. You can't afford not to pray about it. Commit your work your work to the Lord and ask HIM to bless it.
