Topic: Hard Work Pays [Friday March 13, 2015]
“She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy” -Proverbs 31: 20
The above verse of scripture shows that a virtuous woman is generous, merciful, and sensitive to the needs of others. She is a willing and cheerful giver of her wealth, time, and strength.
Are you dedicated to the welfare of your household? God does not unreasonably expect more from you than He has given you the ability and strength to do. When it is time to work, go about it diligently (Proverbs 31:15).
Never let a day come and go without defining clearly what you have accomplished for that day. If your type of job gives you extra time, invest that time! Don’t waste it away.
Perhaps, you are a homemaker. That is, you are at home, full-time. Don’t make that as an excuse for idleness. A wise man once said, and I believe it very strongly; that, “The greatest factory where the most important product on earth is manufactured, is the home”. This is true because the home is where the next generation of human beings are developed.
As a homemaker, be one with a difference! Let your spouse and children feel your impact. Be up early, tidy up the house, prepare good meals, and get your children and husband’s clothes ready. Be diligent at your chores (Proverbs 22:29-23:1). Above all, let your home be an example for others to follow.
