Work

 Everything is work. Whether you have a corporate job or not, you are probably still working. You work on your marriage, hopefully. ๐Ÿ˜€ You "work out your salvation with fear and trembling." You work on taking good care of your pets, or actual kids. You work on watering your yard so it keeps looking pretty. 

We enjoy doing all these things though because it feels most natural to work. The more work you do, the better you feel about yourself. Depressed people are depressed because they have not found enough work to do. Maybe they feel useless and that makes people feel insecure and sad. 

Make yourself useful to society in some way. I have been making what I call encouragement bracelets for 8 years now. Now I am making encouragement cards with glitter stickers. That is tons of fun. Just something for people to hang on their fridge to remind them God loves them. 

What work do you enjoy doing? What makes you come alive? John Eldridge said in a book of his, "Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive. Because what the world needs is men and women who are truly alive." ๐Ÿ˜€ What makes you feel the most alive? Do that. And enjoy your life, while you work well for God and others. God bless!
