Designed by me with due respect to the great sirknight. He best fits to convey the message of hardwork to us all
I went into one of our parishioners intriguing content @juderoyal and I was inspired to write this, In other for us to be great and successful at whatever we do we need to put in Hardwork.
This really inspired me, this was a comment. our great two mice admonishes us to be hardworking and only those who deserve cheese would be rewarded.
Cheese here means success, fulfilment increase and desired rewards or harvest either here on steemit or anywhere we find ourselves.Being Hardworking entails that we get the job done, the bible also tells us that hardwork brings some type of profit.
Our brave Sirknight truely defines for us Hardwork.
To be honoured with a knighthood, knights require to work as a squire for five or six years.when a squire has proven to show bravery and skill at battle, he would then become a knight at the age of twenty-one.The knights title is usually awarded at a dubbing ceremony.This requires dedication, hardwork and strive and our great sirknight holds the knights tittle, we should all emulate his bravery, detest for laziness and his helping hand and drive to impact lives.who took the bold step to bring the steemchurch to change the lives of people through giving, both in cash/kind assistance in providing basic amenities (steemchurch farm), fighting poverty and wiping tears away.
when we talk about profit of hardwork usually we think firstly about money, but it could be anything.For example a person that works hard in school will gain more wisdom, a good job and many more opportunities, Those who post great content will earn steem.Do not be that person with big dreams that says, I am going to do this and does not.Do not be that person who wants the reward of labour but is not ready to sweat.
God bestows gifts in us all and laziness, impure life and neglecting a devotional life are some of the few things that can stop the impact of Gods gifts upon our lives
THE PRICE OF LAZINESS
proverbs 20:4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
Designed by me
Laziness is seen in display in the above scripture, If you always have a reason not to put in positive advancement and creative steps in the direction of your goal you are LAZY! you can drive yourself into action by remembering that while you are not working towards fulfilling your goals some other people are taking gigantic steps towards theirs.
From Proverbs 12:27
The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is preciousLaziness includes more than inaction towards your goal but incompletion and abandonment , this is also laziness. It should have taken this man alot of time and patience to get into the hunting game but because he did not put in extra effort to dress what he caught he was categorized as lazy.This scripture will also remind of Esua. when we discover that we always leave things halfway and abandon them we are lazy this must be dealt with, the great mice tells us strictly in other words that, **Lazy people do not deserve cheese**
Here are some quotes by great men telling us the truth about hardwork
'Hardwork will beat talent when talent does not work hard' Tim Notke
'There is no substitute for hardwork' Thomas A. Edison
'Without hard work, nothing grows but just weeds' Gordon B. Hinckley
In other to conquer laziness you have to follow the every examples of christ, apostle paul and apostle peter who were all hard workers.Always work hard, pray hard and study scriptures hard.Then trust solely on the holy spirit for daily help.we should also imititate the steps of the brave sirknight who deserve a double dose of accolades, take a grasp of the wisdom the two mice offer and apply them.
HARDWORK, REMEDY FOR LAZY ATTITUDE
Always work for God
colossians 3:17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. colossians 3:23-24 work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people . Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the master you are serving is Christ.
Do not Grumble
Philippians 2:14 do everything without grumbling or arguing
Be diligent in whatever you do
Proverbs 10:4-5 Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth.He who gathers crops in summer is a prudent son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.
Do not overwork yourself, the Bible also tells us this
psalm 127:1-2 Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it.except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late , to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep
Be a giver and help those in Need
Acts 20:35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak , and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Discard every form of Laziness
proverbs 13:4 Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will prosper 2 Thessalonians 3:10 While we were with you, we gave you the order.Whoever doesn’t want to work shouldn’t be allowed to eat
Never be wicked and work hard
poverbs 4:14-17 Don’t take the path of the wicked.don’t follow those who do evil. Stay away from that path don’t even go near it. Turn around and go another way. The wicked cannot sleep until they have done something evil. They will not rest until they bring someone down. Evil and violence are their food and drink
Be motivated to carry on
Philippians 4:13 For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength
