Grace and gratitude
My priorities are God, family, community, and work, in that order. Work is part of the same purpose.
I must contribute with the talents God gave me: to dress it and to keep it. How can I use what I have been given to serve my Lord, my family, my neighbour today? I arrange work around life so I can do both.
The result is a life where I see my kids grow and spend time with the people I love, while still building interesting things for clients and euquista. I get to contribute my talents and enjoy the benefits of our efforts while they are happening.
That is grace, and I am tremendously grateful for it. The variety in my work is a cherry on top.
