Having a mind to work

As the day of moving to Owensboro gets near I will post about PSBC and WMBC.

Today I want to share with you a piece of scripture that God showed me this AM. The book of Nehemiah to me is an awesome thing. It is a perfect example of Gods protection, provision and plans. Here God's people are allowed to go back and rebuild the walls in their land. With opposition from every side they put their trust in God and power through. Here is what I love:

"So we built the wall and the whole wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work." (Nehemiah 4:6, NASB)

The people had the mind to work. When we get our minds set on the things of God huge task become small. When we set our mind on the things of God fear fades away. When we set our mind on the things of God big things happen!

I pray we all work on having "a mind to work".
