Morning Morsels 140: Laboring in Vain

If Yah is not at the very heart of your endeavors, you are laboring in vain.

View Transcript

Shalom, and happy morning to you. In life, we work to establish many things. Great efforts are made and vast amounts of energy is spent attempting to build something new, whether that means working to run your own business or acquiring skills you feel will further your career. In this way, an untold sum of money is spent and countless hours burned in devotion to seeing these personal pursuits come to fruition.

Still others have different pursuits that are fueled by a different set of interests, but the simple truth is: if Yah’s purpose is not a part of the equation; if he is not at the very heart of your endeavors, then you are laboring in vain to accomplish whatever it is your mind is set on. But when Yah is behind your project, planning its stages of development—whatever that project might be—rest assured it will see completion and will yield favorable results. Also, you will receive plenty of rest throughout this laborious undertaking.

1 Unless Yah builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless Yah watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. 2 It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep.

—Psalm 127:1 – 2
