Even while we were still there with you, we gave you this rule: “He who does not work shall not eat.” Yet we hear that some of you are living in laziness, refusing to work, and wasting your time in gossiping. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we appeal to such people—we command them—to quiet down, get to work, and earn their own living. 2 Thessalonians 3:10-12 Living Bible ~ Happy Labor Day weekend Sunday friend
“If you care about what you do and work hard at it, there isn’t anything you can’t do if you want to.” — Jim Henson
Do all you can to live a peaceful life. Mind your own business, and earn your own living, as we told you before. If you do these things, then those who are not believers will respect the way you live. And you will not have to depend on others for what you need. 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 Easy-to-Read Version ~ Grace and peace friend enjoy your Holiday weekend.
Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Colossians 3:23 New Living Translation ~ “It was working men and women who made the 20th century the American century. It was the labor movement that helped secure so much of what we take for granted today.” — Barack Obama
