How many times have you asked out of frustration: does God see my hard work? Or should I continue working faithfully for my employer/boss who doesn't seem to notice my hard work? The simple answer is YES. God sees...and in fact, He will honor your hard work. Like you, Jacob must also have asked himself similar questions. In Genesis 31:36-42, Jacob gives us a perspective on what qualifies as diligent hard work that God sees and ultimately rewards.
