Make it sweeter.

Behold, what I have seen to be good and fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life that God has given him, for this is his lot. Everyone also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and rejoice in his toil—this is the gift of God. For he will not much remember the days of his life because God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart. (Ecclesiastes 5:18-20 ESV)

We have to find joy with where we are in life. Maybe we are in a tough time and wish we were somewhere else but if we constantly wake up everyday hating the toil we currently have it will make the journey that much longer and tiresome. Lets find joy with our circumstance because God has us where we are for a reason and the plans of the creator of the universe are much more profitable than something we can ever dream up. Seek joy in building character during the toil and the end will be much sweeter.
