Bob: “Looks like you’ve been missing a lot of work lately.”
Peter: “I wouldn’t say I’ve been missing it, Bob.”

Unfortunately, for some, work seems to be a problem, but for the child of God, work has an eternal purpose. It can’t save us, but it can give us a better life and an eternal investment that can never be taken away.
1 Thessalonians 4:11
that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you.
2 Thessalonians 3:10-12
For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.
For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies.
Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread.
Work was created by God for you. Adam was told to work.
Genesis 2:15
The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.
Think about it.
