How God Planned For Us To Work

2025/3/22 Edited to

... Read moreIn the Bible, work is seen as both a duty and a calling, woven into the very fabric of creation. Genesis teaches us that God worked for six days and rested on the seventh, which sets a model for our own work ethic. By engaging in fulfilling work, men can contribute positively to their families and communities. This involves not just physical labor, but also nurturing one’s spiritual and emotional well-being. To be a better man and father, it’s essential to understand the balance between work and rest. Biblical teachings suggest that dedicating six solid days to productive work, followed by meaningful rest, aligns with God’s design. This balance not only enriches personal life but also strengthens relationships with family and friends. Reflecting on one’s contributions during the week can help in identifying how one provides for their loved ones and fulfills their responsibilities as a man. By following these principles, individuals can understand their unique purpose and strive to live in accordance with their faith while making a positive impact in the world.

Should people ask if a baby was planned or not? 🕊️
Honestly, it’s one of the most WILD questions someone could ask parents. It makes me cringe to my core. Like if they weren’t trying to conceive but are so excited for this little life why does it matter? Would it change their opinion and excitement over this baby? Personally for me I am a Christ
