He provides

The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, And a man is valued by what others say of him. Proverbs 27:21

A mans worth can only be properly measured by those around him. If one has a good reputation and does things for others without an unkind word or thought then he is the one who benefits far more that he that hath the work done for him. The person requesting the work gets what he wanted but the man doing the work will get the value of increased knowledge, possible monetary gains, and his quality of work will surely earn him more work.

I urge all of you to do as I try to do. When you approach a task for yourself or someone for pay do that job to the best of your ability and don't brag about it. Let the quality of workmanship and the receiver of that work do the talking for you. You will find yourself busier than you can imagine. It may take a little while for your work quality and dependability to get around but when it does, your work load will increase. Just remember, God gave you the talent to do whatever it is you do for a living. You should remember also to give back to him at least 10% of everything you earn.

until next time...
