First Be Who You Really Are

Greetings Beloved Ones!

We have a saying that you are always "in the right place at the right time", (or else, you would be somewhere else). But what about the work you do or the job you have? Do you feel like you are in your right place, doing the right thing for you?

The author states, "It is a privilege to have work that supports your grow as a human being; it is a privilege to have work that lets you make a social contribution. It's a privilege to have work that challenges and extends you. Most of all, it is a privilege to have work that reflects your values and develops them" !

Wow!!!! This really hits home because outside of the tremendous sress and work load, I truly am privileged to be able to do the work I do because I could say yes to all of the above statements!

The questions for today are:
. Do you feel your work supports your growth as a human being?
. Do you feel your work offer the opportunity to make a social contribution?
. Does your work challenge and extend you? In what way?
. Does your work reflect your values or develops them?

Well, make it a valuable day!
Rev. Sylvia

  1. I'd have to say a resounding "YES" to all of those questions. Not because I have the perfect job—it's not bad, but it can often be boring, annoying and disinteresting—but because I create the work that gives me the satisfaction of growth, contribution, challenge and reflects and develops my values. This work may not always support me financially, but it feeds my Spirit and Soul which gets me through that 9-5 when it's not jiving with who I truly am. And I thank God for that!
