Zeal

Sometimes success is due less to ability than to zeal. (Charles Buxton, 19th century English writer)

Sometimes we are surprised when a great achievement is discovered, and we learn that the person responsible did not have the apparent skills for his accomplishment. Rather, he made up for that lack with a great deal of enthusiasm for his work. It’s encouraging to note that we don’t have to be a rocket scientist to perform well and do worthy work. Zeal and enthusiasm help.

Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people (Ephesians 6:7).
