A father's work is never done, either (standard:humor, 906 words)
Author: GodspenmanAdded: Jun 12 2011Views/Reads: 2632/1752Story vote: 0.00 (0 votes)
There is an old saying that to my knowledge nobody has ever taken credit. "A man works from sun up to sun down. A mother’s work is never done." If I had said that, I would not want any credit for it either.

"All right, family," the father says, "let's all head for the beach." 

"Aw, dad" the tribe of his household says, "we want to go to Disney
World." 

"Whose world?" the father sighs. 

After the family votes on where they will go for their week's vacation
the father of the household, although he will be funding the entire 
week, is outvoted 99 to 1. "Oh well," he groans as he packs the car for 
Disney World, "there's always next year." 

Oh yes, a father's work is never done. 

Only one exception exists for this rule. That is our heavenly father.
His work is finished in Jesus Christ. "Let us therefore fear, lest, a 
promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem 
to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as 
unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed 
with faith in them that heard it. For we which have believed do enter 
into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter 
into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of 
the world" (Hebrews 4:1-3 KJV). 

Hallelujah, His work is done.
