...to do the will of the Father is work.
God Bless you, you're almost there.
John 6:28 Then they said to Him,"What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?"
John 6:29 Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom he sent."
All the earthly things you worry about are the things that reveal Faith. They do nothing to save you. All you have to do is believe The Gospel God takes care of the rest.
This would be true and accord with the scripture if by faith you mean a well-formed faith. That would not contradict James 2 and be generally the Catholic teaching. If, however, by faith you mean a profession of faith not accompanied by good works and, worse unconcerned about them ("God takes care of the rest") then you contradict Romans 2, James 2 and Matthew 7 at the very least.
