Ecclesiastes 9:10 (NLT)
Whatever you do, do well. For when you go to the grave, there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom.

God has blessed each one of us with different and unique gifts and talents. It is our responsibility to develop and use those gifts and talents to the best of our ability. Therefore, we must educate ourselves, expand our knowledge, and improve those gifts to become skilled individuals.

Whatever you do, do it with excellence and from your heart. Become a diligent, honest, hard working woman, and you will be successful. Remember, your time on earth is short and is preparation for your eternal calling. Therefore, do a good job while you're here. When you do your part and trust God with your life, He will do the rest and bless you by using you for His purposes.
