    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Mar 25, 2005
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,755 views

    Hard work has limited appeal if its only purpose is to accumulate riches or make us more comfortable. Work becomes meaningful when it is seen as service and as ministry.

He took some dust and breathed on it, and the bible tells us that the dust became man. He called the man of the ground Adam, which was a good name for him, but I ...read more
