Labor Day

Today is Labor Day. The summer season is winding down and fall is around the corner. Many will use today as a vacation day. A day to get away and do no work. While that may be okay with our secular jobs, it is not with our Kingdom jobs. The work that God calls us to do never ends or ceases. In Luke 9:23, Jesus teaches that we are to "take up our cross daily, and Him." This means that there are no breaks in our relationship with Him. I can't slow down or take a day off with my Bible reading and prayer. This means that there are no days off in living out my faith before others. Many of you will probably be around family and friends today that are not saved. You must not lay down your cross today just to be around them. We must carry our cross. We must share our faith. We must do the work of the Kingdom. Don't take a vacation on God, for He never takes one on us. God bless and have a great day.
