Be NOT weary doing HONEST work

 

Galatians 6:9

King James Version

9 And let us not be weary in well doing: 

for in due season we shall reap, 

if we faint not.


Are you a blue-collar worker?

Or someone enslaved at work?

With no one appreciating your work?

I dedicate this post to you.

For you are not forgotten.

Most of all, not by JESUS.

Remember, He, too, was a blue-collar worker.

Mark 6:3

King James Version

3 Is not this the carpenter, 

the son of Mary, 

the brother of James, 

and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? 

and are not his sisters here with us? 

And they were offended at him.


He knows your travails.

That's why He promised:

Matthew 5:5

King James Version

5 Blessed are the meek: 

for they shall inherit the earth.


Matthew 20:16

King James Version

16 So the last shall be first, 

and the first last

for many be called, 

but few chosen.


Let these verses honor you.

Let these verses give you strength, to keep going.

Let these verses honor the humble work you do.

Your labor is not in vain.

King James Version

4 By humility 

and the fear of the Lord 

are riches,

and life.

1 Corinthians 15:58

58 Therefore, 

my beloved brethren, 

be ye stedfast, 

unmoveable, 

always abounding in the work of the Lord, 

forasmuch as ye know 

that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.


Galatians 5:22-23

King James Version

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, 

longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: 

against such there is no law.


Ephesians 6:7-8

King James Version

as to the Lord, 

and not to men:

8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, 

the same shall he receive of the Lord, 

whether he be bond or free.

which strengtheneth me.

but wrought with labour and travail night and day, 

that we might not be chargeable to any of you:

to forget your work and labour of love, 

which ye have shewed toward his name, 

in that ye have ministered to the saints, 

and do minister.

4 But let patience have her perfect work, 

that ye may be perfect and entire, 

wanting nothing.

8 Finally, brethren, 

whatsoever things are true, 

whatsoever things are honest, 

whatsoever things are just, 

whatsoever things are pure, 

whatsoever things are lovely, 

whatsoever things are of good report; 

if there be any virtue, 

and if there be any praise, 

think on these things.
