Ephesians 4:28
Whoever steals, you no longer steal, but you work hard and do good with your own hands, so that you can distribute something to those in need.
Annual reading: Psalm 97; Luke 18; 2 Kings 24-25
Some say: “Idleness is expensive”. How come? Out of laziness, people have to pay for it with poverty. Out of laziness in exercise, people have to pay for it with various diseases. Laziness makes people becomes thief. People who do not want to work and are ashamed of being beggars, also throwing open the door of temptation to become a thief. This is definitely not a new human sign and trait.
Become a new human being That have a very high size. Not just doing a spiritual activity, but more than that. Working diligently with honesty is a must as a new human being. The honesty that is born is not only an action but also the heart. Work is a must, like God who is never “idle”, It still works. The sun is still on its axis. The Earth and the other planets are still in their orbits, it is proof that God is still at work. So people have to work Self It does not work for forbidden to eat (2 Thessalonians 3:10).
God wants us to be able to support ourselves from our own hands. God’s blessing does not fail alone from heaven, but it must be pursued with difficulty. No blessing comes simply by folding your hands in prayer, but come because Opera.
Working diligently not only to meet personal or family needs, but so we can share with people Other. We need to be able to share something to cover people in need. Allah must get what he deserves and the poor are recipients of Him (Matthew 25:40).
No we deserve to be called new humans, if you are still lazy to maximize every talent and gift he has given. She not only gave it to be able to stand on our legs, but she also wants us agar can support the other leg. We cannot be selfish, also consider the needs of others.
