Christian Devotional – October 24, 2017

Work hard. At times, it feels like hard work is not a very common characteristic in people these days. We see a lot of folks who seem to feel entitled to what they have. In Proverbs 19:12-29, we see in verse 15, an interesting idea about laziness. Apparently, people could be lazy even in Solomom’s time. His advice? Lazy people don’t eat. We should be willing to work to have what we get. We shouldn’t ever just expect someone else to give us things. Are we being lazy? God honors diligence and people who are seeking to be obedient to Him. He has plenty of work for us to do. Are we doing it?
