Learn From The Great Teacher

Conclusion of Why We Need to Work

There is other work that children have too. For example, schoolwork.  At school you learn how to read. Some children find reading to be fun, but others say it is hard. Even if it seems hard at first, you will be glad if you learn how to read well. When you know how to read, there are many interesting things that you can learn. You will even be able to read for yourself God's own book, The Bible. So when you do your schoolwork well, it really is a blessing isn't it? 

There are some people who try to avoid work. Maybe you know someone who does that. But since God made us to work, we need to learn how to enjoy it. How  much did the Great Teacher enjoy his work? -It was like eating his favorite food. And what work was he talking about?-Telling others about Jehovah God and how they can receive everlasting life.  

So here is something that can help us enjoy work.  Ask yourself,  'Why does this work need to be done?  when you know why something is important, it is easier to do. And whether the work is big or little, do a good job.  If you do, you can rejoice in the work of your hands, just as our Great Teacher did.  
The Bible can help a person to become a good worker. Read what it says at Proverbs 10:4; 22:29; Ecclesiastes 3:12, 13; and Colossians 3:23.
