Dear Friends,
Today at work I was called a "workaholic". Which in my book is not something I ever want to be. I do, however, want to closely follow the work the Lord has set before me with a Colossians 3:23 attitude.
So here's the question at hand. In your interactions with me, have you seen this "workaholicism" to be true? Or is it a "wholeheartedism" that is existing? Does it fall in between the two? Where's it at.
When you want to know something honestly, you ask close friends. Since my time to interact in person with close friends is shorter and farther apart these days, I ask for your insight via the world wide web. You can comment or send an e-mail, give a call or send a text...any and either is appreciated.
I must identify and stop an action before it becomes a habit, or a "ism" for that matter. For the word of God states (1 Peter 4:7-11),
"The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear minded and self-controlled so that you can pray. Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen."
Capiche? I know its random, but help a sister out. And pt. 2 of faith like child will come soon, hopefully before the weekend.
Love,
Lauren

Not a workaholic. You do things well and take them seriously - and that is a wonderful thing - it doesn't mean that you can't get enough of work or that you are addicted to work.
I think being "addicted" to a job well done, with wholeheartedness is totally different.

It was great to see you this weekend... miss you already!
