Without the generous involvement of the person, work becomes dehumanized

Tags: Family and work
When we have to combine family life with employment, we really come to understand the interplay of our own personal struggle and God’s grace. We see every day that a family that is not focused on work is fragile and subjective… and that without the generous involvement of the person, work becomes dehumanized. When family life is sanctified it enriches our professional life. And what we have sanctified in our professional life, strengthens the demands of hard-working family life. I have learned this from Saint Josemaria’s life and writings.
