Jesus taught us to pray, "Give us today our daily bread" (Matthew 6:11). The instruction to pray for daily sustenance implies that we are meant to always be engaged in the work and provision of life. We are not meant to be workaholics, but neither should we be idle. Work has existed since before the fall when God created Adam to rule over the garden. We are called to engage with the life and work we've been given.
