Bad Economy: Advice in The Word

Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread

but he who follows worthless pursuits lacks sense...

An evil man is ensnared by the transgression of his lips,

but the righteous escapes from trouble...

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,

but a wise man listens to advice...

Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,

but those who plan peace have joy...

The hand of the diligent will rule,

while the slothful will be put to forced labor...

Wealth gained hastily will dwindle,

but whoever gathers little by little will increase it...

Whoever despises the word brings destruction on himself,

but he who reveres the commandment will be rewarded...

-Pieces taken from Proverbs 12 & 13

There are so many words of advice in these chapters and those that surround them.  But I wanted to specifically bring out some things, some choices that you can make throughout your daily life to not only enrich it, but to bring glory to God in the process to those around you.

We've spent the Easter holidays thanking God for His Ultimate Sacrifice.  Now it's time to show how we appreciate what He's done.  And He tells us in these verses that, not only will He be honored for it and receive glory, but so will you!

As we are facing tough economic times right now, I chose these specific verses for your encouragement.  And these are just a simple few.  God's Word is filled with direction, encouragement, enlightenment, and hope.  Search it out for every trouble you face.  Even when you're having a great day, still discover new things in the bible.  You will enjoy your day even more!

Promise.

And don't forget to dance.  Jump up and down and tell God how happy you are to have Him as Lord of your life!
