A lady wrote me once that she hated making beds and washing dishes. I said: βWhenever you find that you do not like what you are doing, just remember that God centers you, and whatever you are doing you are doing with Him and with His help. You cannot move your little finger otherwise. When you make your bed, just say, βCome, God, make this bed with me.β
Later she wrote: βThat made me love to make beds and do things I did not like to do. Knowing that God was helping me took away that feeling of loneliness and drudgery.β Take joy in doing things; find happiness in doing everything the best way you can. If you have to do it, you must do it, so you might just as well love doing it. If you really love your work, you will not tire. Conversely, if you hate your work, you will poison yourself by that hatred and the poisons must be removed by an understanding of the universal law of balance. Any other form of relief which does not remove the cause can only be temporary.
