Throw yourself into your work. Go at things as though you mean business. Do not be a lazy Christian. An indolent way of doing things can be neither joyful nor successful. The more of your heart you put into your work, the more it will mean to you, and the more it means to you, the more you can accomplish. Have confidence that you will succeed, for confidence will help you attain to your desires. Do with all your might what your hands find to do.
Be not content to be a formalist, for
Without enthusiasm you lack the winning quality
To be all that you can be in Christ
And shine before the world so brightly.
Smirk not at your many abilities; for they are God-given gifts
