1 Corinthians 4:12 Context


9For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men. are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.'>10We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised. 11Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace; 12And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: 13Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day. 14I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. 15For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. 

God honors those that work hard and do physical labor, there is today a movement to make physical labor a dirty type of thing that only those that are not smart can do . This is so untrue God has always smiled on the laborer . His father was a Carpenter, He was a Carpenter. So People honor and respect those that work hard each day and do physical labor.
Amen
