The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City
In general, when we labor over something we expect a result, we expect our efforts to not be in vain. This holiday is in observance of the workforce but have you considered the workforce of the Lord, all those who selflessly give of their time and resources to Serve the Kingdom, sharing and showing the Light of Gods love; ready at an instant to pray for others.
As you take this day to relax and enjoy the fruits of your labor, say a special prayer of thanks to those in your life who do what they do regardless of recognition or pay. Recognize the contributions and the service from those who are committed, who answer to the Lord.
To all my fellow coworkers in Christ, I too, am so thankful for you and your influences, your gifts, prayers and mission which is so inspiring! We all have to remember that whether or not we get to see the result, WE MUST KNOW AND TRUST that this labor is the MOST important work we are called to do and certainly does not go in vain! One fine day, when we arrive in Heaven we will learn of all those whom we ministered to from afar, all those who observed because we were obedient! This is a reward that is best served on the other side of eternity and for the Glory of God I shall gladly continue to share, shine and show His magnificent Love to all!
We who know Him and serve Him recognize it was HIS ultimate labor which saved & saves, His conquering of death and sin, His sacrifice that equips and empowers us, we know that there is nothing we can do on our own to earn salvation, but it is from the deepest depths of gratitude and love that we set out to please Him, doing as He has instructed us! We are told in directly in scripture,
Matthew 28:19
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
