The Bible says it is best for a man to work and then enjoy the fruits of his labor. The Lord Jesus wants us to be happy and enjoy all the fruits of this life. We are like Adam and Eve in the garden now, with a few exceptions, here to enjoy all life has to offer, just don't partake of sin (the forbidden fruit). Some think that to live for God is burdensome. They think that you must suffer, and be sad, and down and out. That you must carry about a heavy cross to be a good Christian, and that the more you suffer the closer to God you are. That is wrong, for there are plenty of suffering people that are not close to God! I can tell you that God wants us to enjoy our short lives. To work, eat, drink, and be merry. The whole earth is ours, and in the Kingdom we will inherit the riches of the wicked. If fact, the wicked are gathering riches together now, what will be ours then, thank you very much!
Jesus said take my yoke and learn of me. "My yoke easy and burden light." If you find living for God to be grievous or hard, trust me, you are doing something wrong. The greatest joy in this life and in the life to come is to serve the Lord Jesus with all our heart mind and soul. Be blessed.
