Our work is generally a performance based culture, and
everyone knows that at some level they are being evaluated for
their performance. one way we can live out our faith through
our work is with encouraging words to others regarding them doing
well or when something has not gone well that the person is
probably feeling bad about. , everyone knows when they mess
up you don’t need to add to it or let them soak in it
My co-worker Steve this past week said with a smile that
"things don’t always go as planned, I know you beat yourself up,
nobody’s perfect except Jesus"
Proverbs talks often about value of an encouraging word
John 7:1 jesus said "“Judge not, that you
be not judged."
Eph 4:32 "And be kind to one another,
tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ
forgave you."

#2-Hell exists
- Quote from Atheist Penn from magician duo Penn and Teller "
“I’ve always said that I don’t respect people who don’t
proselytize. I don’t respect that at all. If you believe that
there’s a heaven and a hell, and people could be going to hell or
not getting eternal life, and you think that it’s not really worth
telling them this because it would make it socially awkward—and
atheists who think people shouldn’t proselytize and who say just
leave me along and keep your religion to yourself—how much do you
have to hate somebody to not proselytize? How
much do you have to hate somebody to believe everlasting life is
possible and not tell them that?
“I mean, if I believed, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that a
truck was coming at you, and you didn’t believe that truck was
bearing down on you, there is a certain point where I tackle you.
And this is more important than that.”"
Many verses about Hell, but I'll leave with this one:
Matthew 10:28, Jesus says "And do
not fear those who kill the body but cannot
kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to
destroy both soul and body in hell.
L
Gen 28:16 ESV -"Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said,
“Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not
know it.”"-we need to find Him in the middle Of our
own reality (work), He's everywhere, so we know He's there at our
work, we just have to have eyes to see
Hebrew shows it says I, I did not know it- not a mistake, one
Rabbi indicates that when we don’t see God it’s because we are too
focused on ourselves
