“No Shortcuts to Life”
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009In (Proverbs 10:4) It says;“He who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich” (Blessed)
(Proverbs 13:4) “The soul of a lazy man desires and has nothing, but the soul of the diligent shall be made rich” (blessed)
The above scriptures imply that in order to succeed in life or any venture we step out to fulfill, it’s going to take some diligence or some hard work- there are no quick fixes or short cuts anywhere really worth going too!!!
4-Thoughts in reference to this weeks title:
1. Work is not a curse- it is a blessing, because you will have the resources to enjoy the fruit of your labor.
2. Work is the opportunity needed for success - I usually say that God is waiting for us to step out and walk through the doors of opportunity that God makes available to us, but work is the avenue needed to make it happen.
3. Laziness - will only get us to one place called “poverty”
4. Earning what you want - will bring satisfaction and blessing.
So the next time your thinking how can I get to the top of my “game”or position or desired area in life - Remember it’s going to take some good old fashion hard-work. The bible declares that God loves those who are diligent.
Sincerely
Pastor Max
