The thought ran through my head today as I worked at the shop…
The shop the sister and I use as a vehicle to teach Bible study… and not income…
I see myself holding a sign similar to the ones you occasionally see people with on a corner… Will work for food…
But my sign…? It reads… Will work to teach Bible study…
Paul had his tent making business to support his church planting ministry…
We have our custom framing and embroidery shop to support our ladies Bible teaching ministry…
It’s an odd way to live… something the world might call foolish… but that’s what we do… and it fills to the full…
Like Jesus told His disciples when they came back with food to the well in Samaria… urging Him to eat…
“I have food to eat that you do not know about.” … “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work. …”
John 4:32, 34 ESV
And I wonder… what would your work for sign say…? what are you working for…? does it satisfy…?
