Principles of Leadership, Day 30

Work hard while you are able. Read Ecclesiastes 9:10.

The idea of the importance of working hard is a biblical idea. We find stated through multiple places in the Bible that whatever we are to do, we do it as if we’re doing it for the Lord. Here, in this verse, it’s no different. As we are going through our day, we must realize that leading is not a substitute for working hard.

Now, the way in which we work may change and be different depending on our leadership and what is needed in the moment, but the effort and focus of our work should not change. We are to continue to be hard workers. God is glorified by the way in which we do what we do. Are you working hard today? Are you working with wisdom and allowing God to get the glory for everything that He allows us to do?
