                 God will bless us in all our works we do and in everything we put our hands as we work with our own hand diligently with integrity, with all our heart and might for His glory. Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established - Proverbs 16:3. For the Lord your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands - Deuteronomy 2:7.  

Do work with your own hand  

                  To make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody - 1 Thessalonians 4:12,13.

Gift of God

It is good and fitting for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor in which he toils under the sun all the days of his life which God gives him; for it is his heritage.

Salt

                 We will be a blessing to others when we are the salt of the earth. We will be good for nothing if we fail to have peace with others or fail to have gracious speech and actions with others. You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men - Matthew 5:13.

Light

A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore - Hebrews 11:11,12. Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son - Genesis 18:14.
