A Worker's Appetite - Inspirational Photography & Christian Fine Art Landscapes by Josiah Friberg

"A worker's appetite works for him, for his hunger urges him on." - Prov. 16:26

This inspirational photography image speaks to me of the value of hard work in relation to a man providing for his family. It's not exactly Christian fine art, but it does capture a man demonstrating the Protestant work ethic. This is actually a close friend of mine who is helping another friend of mine to build this beautiful stone wall. It's incredibly hard work with a ton of lifting! How do I know? I tried it and only lasted two and a half hours before I had to quit and find something less strenuous on my body. Ever since then I have a deeper appreciation and greater respect for these hard-working landscapers who work very hard all day long. Photograph by Josiah Friberg of Moravian Falls, North Carolina.
