Sort of strange that I went from the summary to the sermon but is how it worked out.<br /><br />I was reading an article the other day on Biblical Agrarianism and it had some comments on "dominion" that was food for thought. Here is the link to the article: http://thedeliberateagrarian.blogspot.com/2009/03/biblical-basis-of-christian-agrarianism.html<br /><br />I am glad to hear that the article was beneficial to you and your family. <br /><br />By the way in working through the article and sermon I was greatly convicted about my attitude at my current place of employment.<br /><br />Have a great evening with your family.<br /><br />Grace and Peace,<br /><br />TonyBluegrass Endurancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06370596191365528849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14944058.post-24215382642289196172011-12-29T18:41:12.613-08:002011-12-29T18:41:12.613-08:00Tony this is a terrific article.

I also think it is a right view of work and how it realtes to all else God has for us that can make work what it is not intended to be.<br /><br />The idea that we need to work is often turned into an end and not just a means and thus work becomes an idol.<br /><br />But at the end of the day it is when we see that work is to glorify God that work can take on a different perspective in our lives.Bluegrass Endurancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06370596191365528849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14944058.post-68978580273473254242011-12-19T18:27:52.870-08:002011-12-19T18:27:52.870-08:00IMHO, work is one of these funny entities. If we ...IMHO, work is one of these funny entities. If we don't have it, then we want it. Life becomes boring, unfulfilling, etc. without work. However, when we have too much of it, then we long for rest.<br /><br />I think God designed us for both work and rest. We just need to find the right balance.JLTanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794087765993583616noreply@blogger.com
