The Privilege

Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. Ephesians 4:28
As we consider how God has made us in His image, we cannot ignore how He has given us creativity - the desire to make and do something that will bring Him glory and us satisfaction.  In our fallen state, we often settle for the "easy way out," and would rather not work. We often buy the lie that work is part of the curse, when it is really part of creation.  But there truly is no greater satisfaction than to work hard for the Lord in whatever we do, have a little saved away, and then give it away anonymously to bless a brother or sister in need.
