“Psalm 127 shows a way to work that is neither sheer activity nor pure passivity. It doesn’t glorify work as such, and it doesn’t condemn work as such. It doesn’t say, “God has a great work for you to do; go and do it.” Nor does it say, “God has done everything; go fishing.” If we want simple solutions in regard to work, we can become workaholics or dropouts. If we want to experience the fullness of work, we will do better to study Psalm 127.”
