Order In Our Work

There is beautiful order in the work of human beings. You can hear it if you put your ear to the human herd at work, the powerful hum of humanity. Wherever there is work being done, listen to the hum of human voices over the sounds of our tools of production. Just as bees produce honey and wax in which to store it, we produce fine foods, and metals, concrete, and petroleum products in which to store it. We and bees are industrial and industrious; and we hum. Our work feels like a chaotic situation fraught with striving and straining to complete the task, to achieve the goal, to obtain success, but seen from far enough away by the eye of God, we are all working evenly, steadily in preordained order. Can you hear it? Hum?
