today's work

have you acquired the habit of doing first things first, or are you one of those people who put off important work until the last minute? the answer to this simple question will help determine how well you do your work and how much fun you have doing it.

God's Word teaches the value of hard work. in his second letter to the Thessalonians, Paul warns, ".....if any would not work, neither should he eat" (Thess 3:10). and the book of Proverbs proclaims, "One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys." (Pro 18:9). in short, God has created a world in which diligence is rewarded and laziness is not. so, whatever it is that you choose to do, do it with commitment, excitement, and vigor. and remember this: hard work is not simply the proven way to get ahead, it's also part of God's plan for you.

Norman Vincent Peale said, "Think enthusiastically about everything, especially your work." if you're wise, you'll take that advice. when you do, you'll soon discover that the old saying is true: attitude determines altitude.

you have countless opportunities to accomplish great things for your God, for your family, and for yourself-but you should not expect the work to be easy. so pray as if everything depended upon God, but work as if everything depended upon you. when you do, you should expect very big payoffs. why? because when you and God becomes partners in your work, amazing things are bound to happen. good day all of you !!!

quote of the day:

"If you want to reach your potential, you need to add a strong work ethic to your talent." by John Maxwell
