Finding joy in the mundane work week today…
The Daily Dash: January 11, 2017 {Celebrate Work}
IN THE WORLD:
* Trump dismisses reports of compromising information; to hold first press conference since election
* Obama delivers emotional final address
* Dylan Roof sentenced to death; served as his own lawyer and never offered an apology
* George Lucas reveals new Star Wars museum plans
IN THE WORD:
This Week’s Verse: Colossians 3:4
When Christ who is your life appears, then you will also appear with him and glory
You don’t know what you are going to do; the only thing you know is that God knows what he is doing – Oswald Chambers
IN MY LIFE
Yes, it’s hump day. But I’ve realized that instead of lamenting about work, why not embrace it? Sure, it can be exhausting, but when you’re good at what you do and someone offers you a job because of that skill and passion, that is reason enough to rejoice!
I know plenty of individuals who are dying to have a chance for employment, so for those of us fortunate enough to have jobs in this economy, we are essentially slapping those people in the face every time we complain about ‘having’ to go to work.
If you are fortunate enough to have a job that’s helping put food on the table and a roof over your head, will you celebrate with me today? And I’ll challenge you to go one step further – help someone who doesn’t have a job; that may mean financially or by simply introducing them to someone who can help them. Either way, don’t take your position today for granted, no matter how greener the grass may seem on the other side.
