Moses and Work

In Exodus the work started on the tabenacle. Moses called the people to work based on whom the Spirit has filled with skill.

Then Moses said to the people of Israel, "See, the Lord has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; and he ahs filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, with intelligence, with knowledge, and with all craftsmanship, to devise artistic designs to work in gold and silver and bronze," Exodus 35:30-33

And again in Exodus 36:2

And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whose mind the Lord had put skill, everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to do the work. (ESV)

God is a god of quality. God expects good work from his people and good work honors God. Furthermore, the skills of craftsmen and construction are not usually considered skills for worship, but obviously these men in working on the temple, worshipped God. I usually don't advocate vocation, but the way God called and equipped these men for the work, may make me reconsider my views.
