if there is rain

is it not a paradox that you are saved
by grace through faith and not by works
and yet once you are saved, God gives
you a new desire to work for His purpose
out of reverence and love for His kingdom?
God, restore to me that joy to work
night and day for you! i was not made to
be a slave to anything or anyone but You.
i pray that i would be reminded daily
that feeling tired after a long day of
labor is a blessing from You, because in
all things, You are faithful and You will
finish the work that You have started in me.
remind me that i should never complain or
feel entitled to rest- i can get plenty
in heaven. Lord, would you reign in my life.
