Today is day 296 and we are studying The Fourth Commandment.

296. What does this commandment teach you about work?

My work is a gift of God that can grant me provision and satisfaction, and serve the common good, but it neither defines my life

nor rules over it. I am thereby freed from resentment and sloth to

work diligently and with joy for God’s glory. (Genesis 2:15; Exodus

20:9–11; Psalm 128; Proverbs 6:6–11; 12:11–14; 16:3; Ephesians 4:28;

Colossians 3:23–24)

We will conclude today by praying Part II of Canticle 10 found on page 87 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
