Proverbs 6:9-11 ” A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest – and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man.”

This Proverb is a timeless reminder of the value of diligence, responsibility, and an excellent work ethic. It dares to ask the question…”How do you use your time?” Are you lazy or prudent with your activities? All the while knowing that laziness produces poverty, while industry brings prosperity. But we love ease and love also to procrastinate… even if it does demonstrate the sin of idleness and slothfulness… like that of a robber who will suddenly overtake & overpower his victim.
