The Dignity of Work
"Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might."
— Ecclesiastes 9:10
Creator God,
Work is not just a means of earning a living; it is also a way to contribute, create, give meaning to one's existence.
Thank You for my work. For what it brings me: income, relationships, a sense of usefulness. For what it allows me to offer the world.
May I find meaning and joy in it. Bring consciousness and heart to it, even in the most ordinary tasks. May my work be a form of service.
Amen.

Reflection
What is your work's contribution? How can you bring more meaning to it?
For all workers and for just working conditions.
