In the USA, the first Monday of September is celebrated as Labor Day. Ironically, we celebrate it by taking the day off from work! Many other countries also have an annual day that recognizes the value and importance of our jobs, careers, and vocations.
Since God created work for us to do before the fall of man into sin, He, too, considers our labors an important part of our purpose and His.
Although since sin entered the world, work can feel like drudgery or punishment, this was not God’s original plan. Even in the perfection of the Garden, He created Adam and instructed him to work the land:
“The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work and keep it.” (Genesis 2:!5)
So, what is the purpose of work? More importantly, what does the Bible say about work? Read through to find out, and find purpose and meaning in whatever vocation God has called you to do! If you enjoyed this excerpt, read more here:
