Good and action are interwoven. Can you imagine inactive good? Socrates couldn't. He linked virtue with wisdom, teaching it to be impossible that anyone could know good and not do it. Much that appears as laziness or unwillingness to work is the inability to recognize the good in oneself and one's efforts.
As human consciousness hears the Word of God, this mental dullness, which does not see the possible accomplishment of good right at hand, yields to the activity and direction of the Christ. It isn't that the Christ says "Go to the store" or "Apply for work there" or "Move that chair to another room." Christ tells us of divine beauty, order, utility, and we relate this to the furnishings and operations of our world.
The action of the Christ fills voids and turns chaos into order. It is not irreverent to recognize the Christly origin of ingeniousness reflected in the invention, manufacturing, and distribution of those things that lift living out of drabness, drudgery, and deprivation.
