A proverb a day: Proverbs 6:6-11 -Learn from ants
Posted by Lance Lawshe in Bible, Inspirational, Work on January 6, 2009
“Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and be wise! Even though they have no prince, governor, or ruler to make them work, they labor hard all summer, gathering food for the winter. But you, lazybones, how long will you sleep? When will you wake up? I want you to learn this lesson: A little extra sleep, a little more slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest- and poverty will pounce on you like a bandit; scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.” Proverbs 6:6-11 NLT
Just reading that should give you all the clarity you need. Don’t let scarcity slip up on you.
Be wise.
A proverb a day: Proverbs 20:13-How to have plenty
Posted by Lance Lawshe in Bible, Inspirational, Work on December 20, 2008
“If you love sleep, you will end in poverty. Keep your eyes open and there will be plenty to eat!” Provebs 20:13 NLT
So many people are trying just to keep there heads above water, and stay away from poverty, but then there are some that are not even trying. Let me encourage the latter.
I want to encourage those that love sleep, not to. Not saying rest is not acceptable, but too much sleep will leave you with nothing to eat. I guess I am trying to be nice, but I might as well just say it. DON’T BE LAZY!! If you want to eat, you must work.
Thanks for stopping by.
