A gift from God
I helped our youngest son move into his new townhouse on the college campus where he is finishing his senior year. He lived in a fairly small dorm room for the first three years of college, so the new “digs” proved to be more like the Conrad Hotel than student housing. Thank goodness there is no room service!
Change. Challenge. Work. That’s what’s ahead for my son this year, but also ahead for the rest of us. To be happy in your work and to accept your lot – this is a gift from God – so says Ecclesiates. Have you experienced change lately? Been challenged in your relationships and responsibilities? Had to work harder than usual to complete a task? This all is a gift from God and can be used in our lives to bring us closer to Him.
I hope you – and my son - find yourself happy in your work and satisfied with your lot today. This is a gift from God.
