Meaning and worth of work in a religious view
A columnist argues happiness comes from meaningful service, not wealth. Citing teachers and nurses as examples, the piece cites Christ as a model who worked to serve God and others. It includes a parable of a mason and stone carver and ends with a call to view labor as participation in God’s creation.

Texas lawmakers face tight budget and tax debates
The Texas Legislature confronts a shrinking expense fund of about $130,000 for year end, while sessions cost last year totaled $2,773,140 with $724,000 by the Senate and $1,242,000 by the House. A retail sales tax could raise about $133 million annually, offset by $3 million in collection costs, and questions arise over interim committee memberships and a gas severance tax suit. The Texas Industrial Commission outlines a $100,000 budget with private funding, and a $50 plate Lyndon Johnson dinner is planned in Austin.
