How do I find meaning in a job that seems insignificant?
Colossians 3:23-24
23 Whatsoever you do, do it from the heart, as to the Lord, and not to men: 24 Knowing that you shall receive of the Lord the reward of inheritance. Serve ye the Lord Christ.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
10 Whatsoever thy hand is able to do, do it earnestly: for neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge shall be in hell, whither thou art hastening.
1 Corinthians 10:31
31 Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God.
Catholic view (generated):
Find meaning in understanding that every job has inherent value and contributes to the common good. Offer your work as a gift to God, recognizing that even small tasks can be done with great love. Trust that God can work through you in ways you may not fully understand, bringing meaning and fulfillment to your work.
