Blessed to do Hard Work

Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

I watched a new reality show tonight. The premise of this one 7 spoiled young people who have never worked in their lives have been paired with 7 in debt blue collar young people. The details of this series are up to you is you want to watch the show, my only observation was how parents (with misguided intensions) can leave their kids so unprepared for life as to not teach them how to work hard.

What is worse than not being experienced in hard dirty work, is have an attitude that examplifies abhorance for those who do work hard for daily living. God has blessed each of us with a talent and gift combination that is as unique to us as our finger prints. When a person is gifted to serve humanity as a waiter or a garbage man, that is just as blessed as one who is gifted to be a banker, lawyer, or ceo.

God never intended for any of us to just party through life. I am so glad that how I live out my talents and gifts with all my might will be an act of Holy Worship to God Himself.
