Theological / Devotional

Labour of thine hands. The industry of the good man is blessed and the diligent toiler enjoys a recompense for his labor. The Scriptures give no sanction to indolence but everywhere uphold the dignity of labor. Man’s life of toil and care was appointed in love, as a protection to him in his fallen state (see on Gen. 3:17–19).
