WORK IN GOD’S KINGDOM
John Stott tells a joke against his vocation: a clefgyman is the last person in the world to write about work. For, as everybody knows, he has not done an honest day’s work in his life. As the old saying goes, he is ‘six days invisible and one day incomprehensible!’

When the problems in my life
seem to get the best of me
when the mountains that I face
are all that I can see
that’s when I call His name
