Now, I baru faham...
Genesis 2 tells us that God placed the first human in the garden to work it and take care of it. My father-in-law is a farmer and he often tells me he farms for the sheer love of land and livestock. That's beautiful but it leaves lingering questions for those who don't love their work. Why did God put us in a particular place with a particular assignment?
Genesis 1 gives us the answer. We're made in God's image to carefully steward the world He made.
Genesis declares that the one true God made humans to be His representative - to steward what He'd make on His behalf. May we reflect His wise and loving order into the world.
Work is a call to cultivate God's world for His glory.
Dear God, Thank You for the honor of joining You in Your work in the world. Help me to reflect Your love, wisdom and order in my life and in the place where I work.
