Work is a part of God’s plan of happiness. As a loving Father, God knew that work could contribute to our well-being.

Honest work not only supplies our physical needs for food, clothing, shelter, security, and the like. It can also provide less tangible rewards such as dignity, self-respect, and meaningful service.

A certain satisfaction comes from providing for yourself and your family and from making meaningful contributions to the world around you.

Work can contribute to your happiness in this life. Learning to work for your own welfare and for the good of others is part of God’s plan of happiness.
