" Take care that during your occupations you do not forget God, because if He were to abandon you, you would not be able to take a single step without falling. Rather, imitate little children walking with their father. They keep one hand in his and with the other pick strawberries and currants along the way. Attend to your work, but every once in a while lift up your mind to your heavenly Father to see whether your work is pleasing to Him and to ask His help. Thus you will perform even the most difficult tasks better and more easily. "
