Good morning, Father! THANK YOU for sooooooo many encouragements lately — I am in LOVE with the FREEDOM and CREATIVITY of having my own self-designed website, and I am even in love with ALL my work lately — WOOT!! It has been about a YEAR since I have made so many changes and updates on this website… and now I have even MORE to celebrate and be excited about because I have begun a whole new product line — Digital Worksheets! :D And that is on TOP of having just added another new product line — Jo Journals! Lord, I am truly HAPPY again, even though I haven’t worked for Rock House in going on a week now, and probably won’t work for them again for another week. I really don’t know what you have for me in the future, Father, but I am quite content just taking things one day at a time and super-enjoying the FREEDOM of concentrating on my OWN work for right now! THANK YOU!!

Fran’s mismash of verses on the topic WORK: (all are in ERV or Easy Read Version):

Colossians 3:23: In all the work you are given, do the best you can. Work as though you are working for the Lord, not any earthly master.

Ephesians 6:7: Do your work, and be happy to do it. Work as though it is the Lord you are serving, not just an earthly master.

2 Timothy 2:15: Do your best to be the kind of person God will accept, and give yourself to him. Be a worker who has no reason to be ashamed of his work, one who applies the true teaching in the right way.

Galatians 6:4: Don’t compare yourself with others. Just look at your own work to see if you have done anything to be proud of.

Galatians 4:18: It is good for you to work hard, of course, if it is for something good. That’s something you should do whether I am there or not.

1 Corinthians 3:13: But the work that each person does will be clearly seen, because the Day will make it plain. That Day will appear with fire, and the fire will test everyone’s work.

Hebrews 6:10: God is fair, and he will remember all the work you have done. He will remember that you showed your love to him by helping his people and that you continue to help them.

Psalms 128:2: You will get what you work for. You will enjoy the Lord’s blessings, and all will go well for you.

Lord, I thank you for the abundance of awesome, encouraging, helpful verses on WORK! Please help me to maintain a positive attitude and to keep pacing myself, taking breaks to exercise and listen to audiobooks and hang out with my Mate and watch the birds, and play with art and such. And when you send me out to work for others, away from my safe and cozy little laptop HOME, I ask you to help me maintain a positive attitude then as well. THANK YOU for these two weeks of concentration on building my site and my Digital Worksheets. THANK YOU for all that I have accomplished thus far at the halfway point, and THANK YOU for all that I will accomplish in the coming week. I ask you to bless my efforts and give me “what I am working for” — which besides pleasing YOU is the FREEDOM to leave Texas when it gets HOT this summer, and return to my lovely HOME area of West Michigan — at least for a month or two or seven… LOL. :D

Back to Fran's BLOG Praying with the Word FranLaff.com/BLOG

I have used this little pic to represent my prayer blog since February 2017. It’s a good mix of things that are ME: nature, worship, surrendering self… plus a solid dose of modernity and technology, as I believe this little box-human is one of the Amazon-style graphics that were popular at the time that I found it. Not sure who created this pic, but I do believe I found it on Pixabay, where NO attribution or credit is needed. However, I am quite willing to be corrected if I am mistaken. 😉 🙂 😄 :O>
