感謝神星期一又到了! Called To Work Office Politics & Biblical Values 如何更享受工作 辦公室政治與聖經價值觀 Elaine Kung Copyright 3
如何更享受工作 回應神對工作的呼召 這份工作極之呆板 工作環境惡劣 金錢及工作的滿足感上都得不到足夠回報 老闆要求太多, 同事不合作, 沒有升級的機會, 工作即繁瑣又枯燥, 連家人也不欣賞我們的辛勞, 所付出與得到的不能成正比, 工作意義實在不大, 做一些不適合甚至是自己厭惡的工作, 做工只是為了餬口 我們應如何看所做的工作呢? 聖經對這個佔據了人生大部分清醒時間的層面有何教訓? Elaine Kung Copyright 4
The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. Genesis 2:15 耶和華神將那人安置在伊甸園 使他修理看守 創世記 2:15 God is my CEO 神是大老板 My 3 goals at work 我工作的三個目標 360 o Leadership 360 度領導力 事業 voca tion 工作 job: MINISTRY! 事工 vocal: call, not occupy/occupation Elaine Kung Copyright 5
事業 (vocation) 工作 (job) 投身於自己有才幹和覺得應該做的工作, 好好的計劃和安排, 不能忽視我們對家人應有的責任 不少人前半生用於工作, 後半生甚至退休時才全力發揮自己的才幹 可在工作以外發揮自己的才幹, 即放工後做自己想做的事 從現有的工作中找樂趣, 嘗試喜歡自己的工作 嘗試學習改善彼此的關係 最要緊的是禱告, 求上帝幫助做這重大的決定, 也應依據尋求祂旨意的步驟 MINISTRY! 事工 Elaine Kung Copyright 6

Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. 13 Share with the Lord s people who are in need. Practice hospitality. 14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. 16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited. 17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at p.e.a.c.e. with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God s wrath, for it is written: It is mine to avenge; I will repay, says the Lord. 20 On the contrary: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head. 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Elaine Kung Copyright 37

Do you ever get afraid and scared @ work? Proverbs 1:33 (KJV): "But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil." COWMENTARY: Years ago, the Lord ministered to me through this passage in a huge way, during a season when my business was struggling and I was getting afraid and scared. There's a wonderful promise in Proverbs 1 that if you and I listen to and apply genuine God-breathed wisdom in our lives, we SHALL be safe and secure, to the point that we don't even evil speak about potential evil. Fear of evil will not invade and permeate our thoughts, emotions, words and actions. Even at work. APPLICATION: Today, are you full of fear at work? You needn't be, if you are hearkening to wisdom. To receive divine wisdom, meditate upon the Word. Listen to the Spirit's promptings. Ask the Lord for wisdom in prayer, as Solomon did and as James exhorted believers to, and it shall be given to you. You do NOT have to spend each day at work a bundle of nerves full of anxiety and stress. Elaine Kung Copyright 66
