为你的工作感谢上帝吧

Aug 16, 2024

勤快人心想事成。(箴言13:4)

查理·“极好”·琼斯(Charlie “Tremendous” Jones)讲了一则关于某人梦见自己继承百万遗产的故事。在梦里,他想淋浴,但喷头不出水;他想刮胡子,但刀片用不了;他想做早餐,但咖啡滤不出,烤面包机也不运作;他去取报纸,报箱空空如也;他出门乘公交上班,但公车迟迟不来。终于,约莫一小时之后,他问别人:“这到底怎么回事?”他们回答:“你没听说吗?人人都继承了百万遗产,再无人干活了。”突然间这人醒了,原来是一场梦,就说:“感谢上帝!”因此,他美美地洗了澡,惬意地刮了胡子;他边看着精彩的报纸,边喝着香喷喷的咖啡,还吃了一大片面包;最后他坐上一部极好的公交车,上了很棒的一天班!现在就感谢上帝所赐与的工作,并且你要全力以赴。你的职位和薪酬极有可能是你的前辈梦寐以求的。也许你不会蒙召进入“事工”,但如果你的工作使你有幸为他人解决问题,赋予你改变生命的尊严,那就心存感恩吧。想象一下,如果没有这份工作,你的生活会是什么样!“懒惰人空有幻想,勤快人心想事成。”
