A new year is a great time to make any necessary changes in our lives so that we can strive for excellence all around. By following God’s word, we are reminded to do our best in all that we do.

It is important to note that we all work in some way or another. It’s ALL meaningful to God! No one form of work is too big or small in God’s eyes! The Bible says the following about work:

(Ecclesiastes 9:10 NIV)
