Labor Day is an American Federal holiday which is observed on the first Monday in September that celebrates the economic and social contributions of workers. Many friends and families will gather together for this last holiday that marks the end of summer. Celebrations today will include picnics, barbecues, fireworks displays and other various activities.
Although Labor Day is a day to celebrate workers, we must keep in the mind that we are co-laborers with Jesus Christ. “Now he who plants and he who waters are one; but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor. For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.” – 1 Corinthians 3:8-9 (NASB) We should always be ready to serve God in any situation, whether or not it is convenient. Be sensitive to the opportunities God gives you.“Preach the message, be ready whether it is convenient or not, reprove, rebuke, exhort with complete patience and instruction.” – 2 Timothy 4:2 (NASB)
The word “Preach” also means teach, to share the love of Jesus Christ that is in you with others around you.
Ponder today how you can tell them of how good God has been to you. Invite someone to church. Pray and ask God for the opportunity to offer someone the love of Jesus Christ for you are a co-laborer with Him.
May you have a safe and enjoyable holiday.
