Alguma vez já tiveste alguém perguntar-te qual era o trabalho da tua vida, ou que tipo de trabalho gostarias de passar o resto de tua vida a fazer? Esta pode ser uma pergunta difícil, especialmente hoje, quando o trabalhador médio terá tido 10-14 postos de trabalho até a idade dos 38! Rapidamente passamos de uma tarefa para outra, até de um emprego para outro, e muitas vezes há pouca sensação de continuidade.
Jesus dá-nos uma grande visão sobre o que a nossa resposta deveria ser, enquanto estamos aqui na terra. A resposta de Jesus à pergunta: "Que faremos para executarmos as obras de Deus?" (João 6:28), ainda é a mesma nesta era de mudanças rápidas: "Que creiais n'Aquele que Ele enviou." Assim o principal, primordial trabalho da nossa vida é crer em Jesus Cristo, e andar como Ele andou. Esta é a nossa agenda diária. Portanto, independentemente do trabalho em que te encontras, ainda tens o trabalho da tua vida em mãos, crer n'Aquele que foi enviado.
~ João 6:29

Have you ever had someone ask you what your life’s work is, or what type of work you would like to spend the rest of your life doing? That can be a difficult question, especially today, when the average worker will have had 10-14 jobs by the age of 38! We quickly move from task to task, even job to job, and often times there is little sense of continuity.
Jesus gives us some great insight on what our answer should be while we are here on the earth. Jesus’ answer to the question, "What must we do, to be doing the works of God?" (John 6:28), is still the same in this age of rapid change: “believe in Him whom He has sent.” So the primary, overarching work of our life is believing in Jesus Christ, and walking as he walked. That is our daily agenda. So no matter what job you find yourself in, you still have your life’s work at hand, believing in him who was sent.
~ John 6:29
