In today’s Career Homemaker podcast: Have you ever gotten tired of cleaning the same thing week after week? It’s hard to remain enthusiastic about our work, yet the Bible says to work with enthusiasm. Let’s unpack this.

In the Bible, it says:

Ephesians 6:7-8 Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will reward each one of us for the good we do.

When I clean our home’s toilets, I can’t say I’m enthusiastic about it. On the contrary, I’m more excited about being done than doing that job. I love having clean bathrooms: sinks, floors, toilets, and tubs, but cleaning them, well, not so much. 

Having a family makes it so my work will be negated soon. The bathroom will be messy again, sooner than later, and I will be back to cleaning up the messes they leave behind.
