Wednesday Prayers: For Work

It's the week before the last week of classes, and I'm enjoying my work.  There's a little notepad with due dates on my desk, and as I cross things off my list, I'm relishing the writing and thinking.  Thanks be to God for that.  Really.  I've had a lot of jobs where I was a ridiculous fit (and where I felt I was accomplishing nothing at all), and I love being a student.  This is joyful work, and it feels great to exercise these muscles.  Lift up a little gratitude with me, if you'd like to.
(Though I will say:  I miss the days when finals were due AFTER the last classes, and not during.)


How's your job?  Are you finding any satisfaction in it?  Shall I hold your work in prayer?  Let me know.

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was."
