What They Said

"The man who has this hope in Him (Christ) goes about his work with vigor, for the joy of the Lord is his strength. "

“The shop, the mill, the factory, the store, the office, the farm are not primarily places for making machines, selling goods, weaving cloths, building engines, and growing crops; they are, first of all, places for making men, building character, growing souls. Right in the midst of what some people call drudgery is the very best place to get the transformed, transfigured life. The doing of common tasks patiently, promptly, faithfully, cheerfully, makes the character beautiful and bright.”

"When men worked honestly, they furthered their own welfare, the society they lived in, and God's purposes for their lives.  On the other hand, those who lived in idleness harmed themselves and society." 

"If your trade be such that you cannot allow yourselves time for your souls, then your trade is unlawful"

“Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.”
