    1. FAMILY or FORTUNE? Pressures in the Marketplace By: Sonny Naz [Pastor] May 06, 2007
    2. “ What good it is for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self?” Luke 9:25
    3. Quotes about WORK: “ Work is the greatest thing in the world, so we should always save some of it for tomorrow.” Don Herold
    4. Quotes about WORK: The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without one.” Oscar Wilde
    5. Quotes about WORK: The dictionary is the only place where success comes before work. Donald Kendall
    6. Quotes about WORK: The highest reward for a person’s toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it. John Ruskin
    7. Quotes about WORK: Behind every successful man there’s a woman who’s surprised.
    8. Quotes about FAMILY: “ We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.” Stacia Tauscher
    9. Quotes about FAMILY: “ If I would get to the highest place in Athens, I would lift up my voice to say, “What mean ye, fellow citizens, that ye turn every stone to scrape wealth together, and take so little care of your children to whom ye must one day relinquish all?” Socrates
    10. Quotes about FAMILY: A little girl was told by her mother that she was in the world to do good for others. The little girl replied, “And what are the other in the world for?”
    11. Quotes about FAMILY: “ A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.” Forest E. Witcraft
    12. Quotes about FAMILY: “ The work will wait while you show the child the rainbow, but the rainbow won't wait while you do the work.”
    13. We were designed by our heavenly Father to work. We were called to work and that has been true from the beginning of time.
    14. Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed…The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. – Genesis 2:8, 15
    15. Work is good and it is God’s design. But if work is good and right and necessary, then why do so many men get slipped up and lose the proper perspective of a healthy balance between work and their homes?
    16. The reason sometimes is because we don’t respond to the warning signs.
    17. Our work in and of itself is not dangerous. But work out of balance is dangerous both to our health and the health of our family.
    18. If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. 1 Timothy 5:8
    19. Emotional provision means not only that the lights are on, but also that someone is home.
    20. The responsibility is not done when you have brought home a “take-home pay”, no matter how great it is. We must strike the balance
    21. Our families and our society demand that we find the balance. If we don’t we’re going to make our families collapsed. F A M I L Y F O R T U N E
    22. We can always get another job, but replacing our family is something we cannot afford to make.
    23. Ask these questions:
      • Am I pleasing God in my work?
      • Am I having enough time and energy with my family?
      • Is my work pushing me to the danger zone of my emotional, mental and physical health?
