Work and Rest

“Work is a blessing. God has so arranged the world that work is necessary, 

and He gives us hands and strength to do it. The enjoyment of leisure 

would be nothing if we had only leisure. It is the joy of work well done 

that enables us to enjoy rest, just as it is the experiences of hunger and 

thirst that make food and drink such pleasures.” 


― Elisabeth Elliot, Discipline: The Glad Surrender
