He has also empowered him to eat from them and to receive his reward and rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God. For he will not often consider the years of his life, because God keeps him occupied with the gladness of his heart. Ecclesiastes 5:19b,20

Lord God, bless me in my work by causing what I do to matter – not only to You but to those impacted by it, and especially to me. Empower me to find satisfaction in the rewards and results of my labor because Your word tells me this in itself is a gift from You. I ask You right now for this gift. Blessed is Your name forever and ever because wisdom and power belong to You. It is You who changes the times and the epochs – who removes kings and establishes kings. It is You who reveals the profound and hidden things, giving both wisdom and knowledge. (Daniel 2:20-22) 

You determine significance. You reveal it in ways we cannot always discern on our own. Open my eyes to see and know what You are doing in and through the work of my hands. Keep me occupied with the gladness of my heart through witnessing Your blessing on my work. Make my days and nights filled with total satisfaction as You bless what I do in Your name and for Your glory. In Christ's name, amen.
