如何平衡地看待工作。当今世界，全球市场一体化，竞争激烈，工作单调，许多人对于每天上班工作都提不起劲。然而，我们本该从工作寻得乐趣才对。为什么呢？因为我们是照上帝的形像造的，而上帝从工作得到喜乐。例如，创世记1：31说，在六个创造“日”或时期结束时，“上帝看他所造的一切，都非常好”。耶和华称为“快乐的上帝”，一个原因是，他喜爱工作。（提摩太前书1：11）既然如此，我们越效法他，不是会越快乐吗？古代以色列的所罗门王大兴土木，善于组织，他写道：“人人都该吃喝，靠一切辛劳享福。这是上帝的恩赐。”（传道书3：13）如今这个时代，工作环境急剧变化，人要对工作怀有平衡健全的看法可不容易。可是，耶和华上帝会赐福给听从他仁爱指导的人。（诗篇119：99，100）这样的人会是可以信任的好雇员，因而比较容易保住工作。此外，他们不是只从经济角度去看生活和工作，而是怀有属灵的观点。这种态度使他们作出负责任的决定。他们也看出，快乐和安全不受制于一份工作，或不稳的就业环境。（马太福音6：31-33；哥林多前书2：14，15）对于工作，他们怀有真正平衡的看法。

English translation:

How to Cultivate a Balanced View of Work. IN TODAY’S high-pressure world of global markets, cutthroat competition, and mass production, many people do not look forward to going to work each day. Yet, we should enjoy our work. Why? Because we were created in God’s image—and God takes pleasure in his work. For example, when reviewing what he had done at the end of the six creative "days," or long periods of time, "God saw everything he had made and, look! it was very good," states Genesis 1:31. Jehovah’s love of work is undoubtedly one reason he is called "the happy God." (1　Timothy 1:11) Is it not reasonable, then, that the more we imitate him, the happier we become? In this regard, King Solomon of ancient Israel, an outstanding builder and organizer, wrote: "Every man should eat and indeed drink and see good for all his hard work. It is the gift of God."—Ecclesiastes 3:13. To cultivate a balanced, wholesome view of work in today’s rapidly changing workplace can be a challenge. But Jehovah God blesses those who heed his loving direction. (Psalm 119:99, 100) Such ones become valued and trusted employees and therefore are less likely to lose their job. They also learn to see their life and work not just from a material perspective but from a spiritual one. This enables them to make responsible decisions in life and to see that their happiness and sense of security are not bound up with their job or in the often fickle job market. (Matthew 6:31-33; 1　Corinthians 2:14,　15) It helps them to cultivate a truly balanced work ethic.
