day no. 16,848: men wanted

One of my elders, Daniel Spratt, reached out to me the other day (October 27, 2023) and mentioned wanting to create a "men wanted" style post in similar vein as a Shackleton's famous ad. I simply proposed editing the original to our purpose rather than re-inventing the wheel. Here is what I came up with.

Men Wanted: Hazardous project. No wages, bitter opposition, long months of battling darkness, constant danger, safety uncertain. Honor and recognition payable on death.

Our labors in the Lord are not in vain. The future is Christian. The present hard work is our blessed participation in its building.

1 Corinthians 15:57-58
Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
