5:5 – Back To The Job Or Back To Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Intro<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Tomorrow is my first day back at work since December 17. It’s been a long couple of weeks between Christmas, New Year’s Day, kids off, pain, and celebrations. I’m looking forward to getting back to work. This got me thinking about the difference between having a Job and doing work. For some people, it’s the same thing. They go to work, do a job, come home, live life, rinse and repeat. Some talk about the difference between a job (paycheck) and a career (making an impact). However you slice it, there is a third option. What if we stopped seeing our jobs (or careers) as defining who we are and that the work they do is what values us. Instead, what if we looked at our jobs as the vehicle to help us do God’s work. You don’t have to be a pastor, preacher, rabbi, or Immam (no offense to other religions I’ve missed) to do God’s work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, I’m learning that my job pays the bills, but my purpose is to be a good human<\/a>, share how God is working in my life, and help others however they need it. This is why God has put me where he has. So it may be back to the job, but the work hasn’t slowed down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
