Prov 6vs1-11. Many people today have erroneous views about the issue of work.while some see it as a burden that disrupts their play and fun, some believe that the primary purpose of work is to make money;hence, they work just because of monetary benefits or cut corners to make money while avoiding work altogether. Some "Christian" view it as a curse or part of the curse of living in a fallen world. they make a destination between spiritual and secular work, saying it is a waste of time to do any secular work because "it doesn't have eternal value." But, they are all mistaken.
Work is an integral part of human existence. God created humanity to work. He made that clear from the beginning of creation when He placed Adam, the first man, in the Garden of Eden to "dress it and keep it". This means He desire that man should work rather than live an idle life. He made Adam to dress and till the Garden even when he was in the state of perfection and innocence, negating the view that work is a result of the fall.
Rise up and work! Prayerfully look for a legitimate, honest, and God-honoring work to do, and be diligent in your work. Do not despise small opportunities though, for your small business today ca become a conglomerate tomorrow(Job 8:7). Avoid laziness and idleness ,and not make your work an idol. Remember in all labour there is profit.
