 2,21-

We are teachers, farmers, ranchers, gardeners, nurses, doctors, dental assistants, accountants, warehouse workers, government employees, bankers, real estate loan officers, counselors, truck drivers, EMTs, firemen, computer specialists, writers and ministers.

These are the daily jobs of people i get to pray for in my family and friendship circle. They bring a little piece of heaven's joy into their workplace by showing up on time, being fairminded and kind. Being hopeful and upbeat. Be competent and persistent. Finishing the day strong.

This on a good day. We fail and have bad days. Then we need a fresh start and our God's mercies are new every morning.

Romans 12.

3 For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. 4 For just as we have many parts in one body and all [f]the body’s parts do not have the same function, 5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually parts of one another. 6 However, since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly: if prophecy, [g]in proportion to one’s faith; 7 if [h]service, in the act of serving; or the one who teaches, in the act of teaching; 8 or the one who [i]exhorts, in the work of [j]exhortation; the one who gives, with [k]generosity; the one who [l]is in leadership, with diligence; the one who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
