WORK, WORK, WORK!

.

.
Your work is to discover your work

and then with all your heart give yourself to it.

*
Buddha

.

.
The best way to appreciate your job

is to imagine yourself without one.

*
Oscar Wilde
.

.
Pray as though everything depended on God.

Work as though everything depended on you.

*
St. Augustine
.

.

.
Work is either fun or drudgery.

It depends on your attitude. I like fun.

*
Colleen C. Barrett

.

.

.
While the ideal of society is universal freedom,

idleness should never be tolerated.

All able-bodied persons should be compelled

to do at least a self-sustaining amount of work.
*

THE URANTIA BOOK
.

.

.
Never forget there is only one adventure

which is more satisfying and thrilling than the attempt to discover the will of the living God, and that is the supreme experience of honestly trying to do that divine will. And fail not to remember that the will of God can be done in any earthly occupation. Some callings are not holy and others secular. All things are sacred in the lives of those who are spirit led; that is, subordinated to truth, ennobled by love, dominated by mercy, and restrained by fairness — justice.

PSALM 133

.

.

Oh, how good and pleasant it is,

when brethren live together in unity!

.

It is like fine oil upon the head

that runs down upon the beard,

.

Upon the beard of Aaron,

and runs down upon the collar of his robe.

.

It is like the dew of Hermon

that falls upon the hills of Zion.

.

For there the Lord has ordained the blessing:

life for evermore.
