The first recorded instruction given to Adam after the Fall dealt with the eternal principle of work. The Lord said 'In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread.' (Gen. 319.) Our Heavenly Father loves us so completely that he has given us a commandment to work. This is one of the keys to eternal life. He knows that we will learn more, grow more, achieve more, serve more, and benefit more from a life of industry than from a life of ease.
