Any work performed consciously is prayer, however some careers help keep to goals of Unity uppermost. I enjoyed my career as a teacher and always kept Abdu’l Baha’i compassionate guidance.

I love this so much, such a helpful reminder of our own value and unique contributions we can make, which is an easy thing to forget!
