What does it mean to "love the Lord your God with all your mind" while doing your daily job? Often, it means embracing the pain of thinking hard about things, in order to get to the pleasure of true problem solving. Without embracing that pain of careful, diligent thought, we won't be able to get to the real, glorious triumphs at work. Sometimes we get confused about this. We think that being good is about being nice, not necessarily about being smart. But being good always entails being as smart as we can be—not shirking from the intellectual demands of our work, whatever they are. God is glorified when we do the hard work of thinking in order to do our work well.  Sources: Luke 10:25-28 (NIV) Proverbs 25:2 (ESV) Matthew 12:22-28 (NIV) Matthew 10:16 (ESV) 1 Corinthians 2:16 (ESV) Dallas Willard, "Jesus the Logician," Christian Scholar's Review, 1999, Vol. XXVIII, #4, 605-614.
