Sunday Scripture: Proverbs 13:4

By , About.com Guide   January 8, 2012

Follow me on:


Proverbs 13:4- "Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will prosper and be satisfied." (NLT)

Hard work is something that can be incredibly rewarding. Many people today are always looking to cut corners or not do anything, but sometimes putting your nose to the grindstone and doing the work ahead of you can be incredibly satisfying. Not everything in life comes easy, and sometimes it's better when it doesn't.

God tells us that we can be successful if we put in the effort, and we need to fight through the desires to be lazy or give up. He promises us that our diligence will be rewarded.
