"Now get to work. You will not be given any straw, yet you must produce your full quota of bricks." Exodus 5:18
"Do more with less!"
The modern business world did not invent the concept of doing more with less. Pharaoh punished the Israelites by refusing to supply them with the straw needed to make bricks. He did this without changing the quote.
How often does this happen today? In every job I have ever held, I have faced this same dilemma. Budgets are cut. Resources are reduced, and management generally says, "work harder." The workload only increases.
Lord, the unfairness needs to stop. I don't ever want others to look at me and call me unfair. Provide the means, so my staff isn't simply faced with working harder - with less. Forgive me for not praying enough for Your blessing in my workplace. We can't do it without You. Help me to be a servant to those around me today.
