Proverbs 12:24 "Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in slave labor."

Proverbs 31:15, 17, 18:  "She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls...She sets about her work diligently; her arms are strong for her tasks.  She sees that her trading is profitable and her lamp does not go out at night."

Dear God, please help me to learn consistent discipline.  I have wanted the fruits for twenty-two years, and I'm still trying to acquire this character quality.  It is time for me to stop playing, stopping/starting, and grow up in this area.  You know my weakness, and You love me still, yet I cannot break Your beautiful law of reaping what I sow--I can only break my household against the law with poor choices.    Please give me strength, wisdom, and consistency to bless my family, especially my husband; to be an example to my children, and to train and teach them faithfully, to be able to laugh at the days to come!  Imagine that!  In Jesus' name, Amen
