Chapter 3 of Nehemiah is such an encouragement. Everyone worked together to accomplish something that would please God.
You have ordinary men and women (yes, even women worked (3:12)), priests, princes, and rulers all working on a section of the wall. They worked alongside each other and all worked until their section was complete.
There is one group of men who did not work (3:5), but others piked up their slack. It also seems that they picked up the slack without complaining. They saw a need and filled that need.
When we face a task that seems impossible, may we remember Nehemiah 3. When we work together in unity, we can accomplish much! Many hands make light work. We also need to remember that no one is above the work of the Lord and that everyone is capable of helping in some way.
