Just the other day I heard someone say that. Far too often that is exactly how we see life--that it is all about earning a dollar. In true perspective life is about earning a dollar, or better put, making a living. God told Adam in the garden to fill the earth and rule over it. He was telling Adam there is no free ride, but in the paradize condition that they lived in Adam didn't see it as work, until after the sin. When we work in good working conditions and like the people around us and make a good living, many of us seldom see going to work each day as a burden that we hate. I love the work that I do more than any other job I have ever had.
The difference is that in my work it is not just about making another dollar. My work is helping people in so many different ways, and I think that is what makes the difference. If everyone of us sees our work as a means to help other people, and the pay as the means to do that, we would have a different perspective on going to work. Start today by looking around you to see who can help. God will put magnifying glasses on your eyes and you will begin to see opportunities that you didn't know existed.
Step out in faith and make a difference for someone, no matter how small it might be. Your attitude toward going to work to just make another dollar will change. Your attitude toward the people around you will change. Your attitude toward the blessings that God is giving will change.
Try it!
