In a fallen world like ours it's easy to think your efforts don't make much difference.
But this isn't true... and the Bible proves it.
Notice...
The Fall of mankind takes place in Genesis 3... and here everything was tainted by evil.
Yet, in the very next chapter, Genesis 4, the Bible introduces those who labor in specific areas... working with livestock, mastering musical instruments and forging metal (v.22).
It's as if the Lord is saying... "Yes, humanity has been corrupted by sin, but My plan to develop the world goes on."
Well if this was true at the beginning of creation, it's even more so today... since Jesus has redeemed us to do good works (Eph.2:10).
So don't let the depravity of our world keep you down.
God still intends you to apply industry and ingenuity for the sake of His kingdom.
So take a look around you and bring your gifts to bear!
