By this logic we should all do nothing, since we don't deserve anything if we work for it. Sorry, I can't buy that kind of convoluted thinking. But thanks for sharing.

No, that would only be if we didn't acquire benefit from our efforts. If you work the odds are you will get something out of it. For example, the Lord commands that we should compensate those who labor for our benefit. Thus if someone works for me I am required by God, under pain of sining against His command, to pay that person. But it's a moral issue between me and God as much as between me and hypothetical employee.
