Before the fall of man, one can only imagine the joy and fulfillment of work. We only often see the labor and struggle of work and forget the joy of being able to have the blessing of work, it gives us a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and provision to bless and be a provider.
"Nothing is so intolerable to man as being fully at rest, without a passion, without business, without entertainment, without care." Blaise Pascal
Blaise said it so well that my role is no longer the provider but the helper; a day without accomplishment is dreadful. We were designed in our D.& A. to find fulfillment in work. The Master designer's plan for these children is to work as to the Lord, when a person washes dishes, bakes a cake, designs a building, or runs a business to employ others if the heart is set on doing the will of God, they have done an act of kindness, and God sees it as good.
