Proverbs 12:9 Better is a man of humble standing who works for himself than one who plays the great man but lacks bread.
One cannot fry eggs without breaking the egg shells, in the same way one cannot saw wood without having sawdust, so for everything that we do there will always be a cost and a result. So whatever we do we need to understand that there will be a consequence and that each action we take will have a cost of some kind or another. Many want to do things, yet they are not prepared to make the effort or pay the cost, and then when they do not have what others have they blame everyone and everything but themselves.
Having come from a home where one had to work hard and with very few privileges, studying part time while working a full day, starting at the bottom of the work pile of life and eventually able to have achieved a decent salary and reasonable life, and others try to make you feel guilty because they have not done the same. God has promised that those who seek His ways, those who work hard and trust in Him will be blessed. Each person has every opportunity to achieve their God given plan in life, all they need to do is put the effort in and do the work. Even the sparrows have to leave the nest to find the food, so we too need to work and provide for ourselves and our families.
Be encouraged today to thank God for the ability to work and to provide.
David
