Work, Gift Of God
Today’s Reading: Ecclesiastes 3:12-13 Version CEV

Many people keep saying: “I would like to know who invented work!” Others face the daily struggle as if work was a punishment, a curse.

God invented work, or better yet, work is a gift from God to turn human life into something useful and enjoyable.

Every day, before you go out, give thanks to God.

Do you have a job, an occupation? Then, thank God. Give thanks because you have some kind of ability and are able to use your intelligence and the dexterity of your hands. Today many will not be able to leave their homes; they will not be able to get out of bed. Others will be in a hospital. Worse than that: thousands of inactive people, living a useless life, taking advantage of the society in which they live.

Do you have a job, an occupation? Then you are fortunate. You have the opportunity to be useful, to build something, to improve the world in which we live. Thank God and go everywhere, providing value and excitement to the lives of all those around you.

Anxiety - Future
Today’s Reading: John 4:14
Are you part of that group of people who only think about the future? I hope not, because we must work today to build a better future for you and your people.

Daily anxiety and the obsessive notion of riches have affected both the extent and quality of human life. So we face diseases, weariness and anxiety.

Pay attention! When you are not satisfied with anything in life; when money is no longer enough to live; when the fear of failure and the future takes hold of your heart, there will be no joy in life and anxiety will attack your spirit and your body.

Be satisfied with what you have; live with simplicity; do not spend all you earn.

If you live worrying about the future, know that perhaps the future will never arrive. You’ll die tired as if there were no rest in eternity. Work and rest, as needed, earn and spend with balance, this is essential. Live the present as if it were the future because this is sensible.

Always work, but do away with anxiety. Live life! Jesus is the fountain of life. Drink that water and you will never thirst.

Rest -2
Today’s Reading:Matthew 11:28
For many people, to rest and enjoy life is almost a sin. “Work dignifies man,” they say. Because of that they work, work, work. We live in a generation of people who worship work and work late hours that should be devoted to rest.

One day, a small girl interrupted her father with these words: “Dad, I want to tell you something, but I’m going to say it quickly.” Sensing the frustration of the child, the father replied: “You can talk, dear, and you don’t need to talk fast, speak slowly.” The response of the small girl then, was immediate: “Slowly, dad! Are you sure?”

One of the reasons for us to rest is this: rest offers us the opportunity to reflect on the goodness and love of God. A friend, amid many commitments he considered urgent, had the beginning of heart stroke. Although he was helped, he had to remain at rest for two weeks. In that period, he asserted: “I had time to think about life and about God.”

Do not wait until an illness sends you to a hospital bed to think about life, death and God. Live your life with ease and make time to rest. And during the rest time, remember the love and goodness of God in your life.
