There is an old saying that to my knowledge nobody has ever taken credit. "A man works from sun up to sun down. A mother’s work is never done." If I had said that, I would not want any credit for it either. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story "All right, family," the father says, "let's all head for the beach." "Aw, dad" the tribe of his household says, "we want to go to Disney World." "Whose world?" the father sighs. After the family votes on where they will go for their week's vacation the father of the household, although he will be funding the entire week, is outvoted 99 to 1. "Oh well," he groans as he packs the car for Disney World, "there's always next year." Oh yes, a father's work is never done. Only one exception exists for this rule. That is our heavenly father. His work is finished in Jesus Christ. "Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world" (Hebrews 4:1-3 KJV). Hallelujah, His work is done. Tweet
