Living for the next deal to be made is a great motivator for many. We all need to work hard to get ahead and provide for our future. But the reality of everything going up in smoke on the last day is a sober reminder that we might be working for the temporary, not the eternal. It’s not wise to sit around waiting for the second coming. Our work efforts and deals to be made should be responsible actions that produce good in us and around us. We have a responsibility to help the less fortunate, pursue justice and mercy, and to influence others for the good.
