Good Morning, God
The headlines proclaim today "Labor Day" and we celebrate labor by taking the day off from it! Well, thank you, Lord, for those who make the rules of holidays that our patterns of life can be different today. May we make the best use of this time to relax by spending the day with family and friends, by taking life a little easier, by doing something fun, by simply sitting and enjoying your world, for this is a beautiful time of the year. We also give thanks this day for any ability and opportunity we have to work, whether it is in or around our homes, whether it is at a paying job, or whether it is at a volunteer job that pays with heartfelt gratitude and satisfaction.
Thank you also, Lord, for your promise of blessing: Come Labor on. No time for rest, till glows the western sky, til the long shadows o'er our pathway lie, And a glad sound comes with the setting sun. "Well done, well done!"
In Jesus name, Amen
