The Bible has a lot to say about hard work ~ Raul Ries

Shaping the Person Through Hard Work

“He who tills his land will be satisfied with bread…”

Proverbs 12:11

 

The Bible has a lot to say about hard work. Not only is man to work hard to provide physical sustenance for the family, he is also told to work to build his character.

Charles Kingsly said, “Thank God for every morning when you get up that you have something to do that day which must be done whether you like it or not. Being required to work, and doing so to the best of your ability, will breed in you self-control, diligence, contentment, and a hundred other virtues which the idle never know.”

Thought for the Day:

The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes to do,
But in liking what one has to do.
