I haven't posted in a few days because we have had a lot going on and I have been out of town at a conference for the last few days. Conferences can be fun. You get a break from the normal routine. You get to see colleagues in your field. You get to hear informative and challenging presentations. BUT, there is a lot of work too.
If you are involved with the conference (e.g., presenting, planning, moderating, troubleshooting, etc.), it can be very tiring. Rewarding, but tiring. However, I am one that I want to be involved. I don't want to just go to church; I want to be a part of the church - I want to work in the church. I want to be a part of trade organizations. I want to be productive and working wherever I am.
Today's word is a reminder for us all about the first human worker GOD created: Genesis 2:15, NIV, reads, "The LORD GOD took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it."
From the very beginning of time, GOD has prepared for us something to do. And, He has prepared us to do it. I don't care how old you are; GOD has work for you to do. I don't care how young you are; GOD has work for you to do. I don't care how rich, how poor, how intelligent, how tall, how short, how whatever you are - GOD has work for you to do.
Yes, work can be challenging and trying and tiring. But, work is also fulfilling and satisfying and rewarding. Why? Because GOD has made us to work and has made work for us to do. We haven't all been created to perform the same work, but we have each been created to do some work.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
