Because He cares, we care!

Monday Devotion

Labor Day
 Like many of you, I have this Monday off from work. However, I know a number of friends that are working their regular schedule today.  A break from work would be nice, but the job needs to get done.  As I began my day in prayer, I was so glad that the Father did not take the day off.  Not only did He meet with me, but he has promised to meet my needs according to His riches.  As believers, we have a purpose give to us by our Heavenly Father, We must work the works of him that has called us while we have opportunity.  May we continually be found faithful by our Lord and Savior.
 
  
1 And as he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. 4 We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. 5 When I am in the world, I am the light of the world. 6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay, 7 and said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent). He went away therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
John 9:1-7 (ASV)
