What does the Bible say about enjoying work?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that enjoying one's labor is a gift from God (Ecclesiastes 2:24).

Ecclesiastes 2:24 states, 'There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labor.' This passage emphasizes that the ability to enjoy the fruits of our labor is a divine blessing. It teaches that our work, when viewed through the lens of God’s providence, can bring joy and fulfillment. The preacher points to Solomon’s realization that although he had amassed great wealth and wisdom, true enjoyment comes from God, reaffirming that life without God leads to vanity and emptiness.
