Our Problems With Work
“What’s the point of work?”
Do you ever ask yourself that question after a long day? Maybe a project you’ve been working on for a long time didn’t pan out. Maybe you were passed over for that promotion. Maybe you have a co-worker who’s just driving you mad. Maybe your job is being a stay-at-home dad or mom, and you’re losing sight of the “point” of work as you struggle to get the kids to school, do the laundry, and tackle the hundred other things on the to-do list. If you’re not struggling at work now or haven’t in the past, there will come a time when you will! Work is hard, and it’s something we must all contend with.
The good news though, is that God is with us every step of the way. When we learn to center our identity in the hope of Christ and the help of the Holy Spirit, work can become more rewarding, joy-inducing, and God-glorifying!
