Day 292 - Work For It

"I had to work for it."

Yesterday we talked about worth. Today is work. Many people don't like work. I understand why. It is unpleasant to the flesh. If we could have results without work we would take it. That is not the way it happens though. Without work there are no results. 

It is a great encouragement that God is a worker. We are introduced to the Creator of all things in the book of Genesis as He works. Jesus said that He and the Father were working since time began. The Holy Spirit has a work He is doing in all of us. 

We are to be imitators of Christ. That imitation includes working. If we do then we will eat the fruit of our labors. That is the reward of our work. We get to the 'it' we had to work for. Whatever that 'it' is. 

How do we do the works Jesus did? What satisfaction is there in our work?
