In Ecclesiastes 4:4, the Preacher begins to tell us that while hard work is good (3:22), we shouldn't work hard out of jealousy of someone else or out of an attempt to fill a void in our life. Earthly stuff will never replace a relationship with Jesus. Instead of giving in to the trap of selfish striving and/or jealousy, a wise person will cooperate with others and lift other people up. We’re better together, especially as we represent Christ. The pursuit of earthly things is ultimately meaningless, but the things done for Christ last forever. In the context of work, what sets Christian’s apart is not only what we do, but why we do it.
