DON'T WORK FOR GOD

 If we "work as if everything depends on us", our work becomes drudgery ... when it's not stressful.

And stressful when it's not drudgery.

At one point when Jesus was hassled by the Jewish leaders for healing an invalid on the Sabbath, he told them all, "My Father is always at his work to this very day."

"And I too am working." (John 5:17)

We are not called to work for God. We are called to work alongside God.

How can you play off God's activity if you are running yourself ragged, working "as if everything depends on you"?

If we can get into the mindset of working alongside God, following His lead, it's going to feel like a slower pace, but more important stuff will be accomplished.

There's so much more joy in it, too.
