Nelson Boils:
Every time I go to work I think of:

"...through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground.."

Whew!!It is tiring making money for a living!!Waking up every weekday morning,9hr shift,comeback sleep,before you even shut your eyes it is already the next day - off you go again!Do you notice that we spend most of our time with work colleagues than family?Unless you work for yourself of cause!

Nelson,

You're in good company.   ;D  Here is what Jesus said:

“My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.”  John 5:17 NIV

lilitalienboi16:
Heh... if only my work days were shorter... but I can't complain. I shouldn't. It is merely the remnants of a stubborn beast who won't die, an old man who refuses to go quietly into the night. I was well guarded and cared for without much effort on my part the first 26 years of my life. I had known relatively few days of evil. It is my due now to work hard. Wish that this hard work would make me more obedient and less susceptible to the lusts of the flesh but alas with man it is impossible to be saved.  Our careers seem incapable of bringing us salvation, no matter how hard we labor. No knowledge of God or work of man. What a marvelous truth testified to through His Word and in the experiences of this life. As paul said, "O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin." Would that the Lord not tarry too long.

Thanks Randy for the prayers, all in accordance to God's will, the only thing ever done. A strange work the Lord is doing indeed.

God bless,
Alex

repottinger:
You're very welcome, Alex. I'll be sure to pray for God to sustain you through all of your hard work as well, Nelson; it sounds very difficult.
Sincerely,
Randy

Nelson Boils:
