"Ask God's blessing on your work, but don't ask him to do it for you." Dame Flora Robson
Prayers for our work should include prayers for inspiration and the strength for perspiration. When we add to that wisdom and willingness to dedicate all our efforts to the Lord's service we are certain to succeed in all we do. It is interesting to note that in Hebrew the ancient word avodah (ah'-voe-dah), which is used in Scripture, has dual meanings: worship and work. How wise we would be if we could see all our work as a means of worshipping God, and how beautiful our lives would be if all our work was worthy of being called worship.
