Jeremiah 29: 11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
What role does faith play in the actions that we do? What role does faith play in the work that we do? It all comes with the right mindset. The right faith. The dignity that will lead you to the right path. We work not only for ourselves but for others as well. We work to help benefit our society for the greater good. While there could be hindrances or setbacks, there is a special person who is always by our side, whether during the good or bad times. That special being is none other than God. God also serves as our moral compass, as he teaches and guides us throughout our entire existence, to test us, to challenge us, to release our inner faith.
As workers/missionaries, we work alongside God, and we work for the benefit of his creation. We are called to act and care for his creation. To work diligently is to also love what you are doing. Know the importance of your purpose. God created us to continue his mission of taking care of his creation. Despite obstacles or problems being encountered, we can face them as long as we have strong faith and commitment. Commit yourselves and believe in God. With him, we get to express ourselves even more. As individuals, we are tasked to share our skills, talents, and knowledge in order to fulfill his goal. He gifted us with different kinds of resources, therefore it is our duty to take care of them. These resources help us live out life and make the most out of it. His generosity gives out a larger value. Now, it is our time to give back.
With that, let us remember that our work, is for everyone. For you. For others. For God. In that way, we can truly obtain authentic freedom. Choose the right path. Choose God.
