She cans her own vegetables and bakes bread from scratch. She writes heart-wrenching, beautiful letters to friends, acquaintances, missionaries and family just to encourage them and tell them about God s love. When you leave her house, she ll stand at the end of the drive, wave and smile until your car is out of site. Her work has been hard over the years, but she found strength in the Lord and her attitude has ministered to countless people, most directly her husband, children and grandchildren. In fact, the first sentence of the Bible tells us God worked.
Creation is work.
God is a worker, write Sherman and Hendricks. Not only is God a worker, but man is a worker, too. God created us as workers because we are His co-workers. Like God, whose eternal kingdom is his reign, realm, authority, and dominion, humankind has been given dominion over the earth Caring and developing God s creative work is a vast undertaking, Peacock writes. All work is an extension of God s work, as we are His co-workers.
