• Thursday, January 18, 2007 - Quick Thought

This morning in my quiet time, I read Proverbs 18.  Verse 9 is always holds a note of conviction for me.

 

He who is slack in his work is brother to him who destroys.

 

Would I ever intentionally destroy my home and family?  Of course not.  But when I choose to be slack in my work I am doing just that.  Lord, I know there is a time for work and a time for rest, but I pray that you would help me to not take advantage of that freedom.  Help me to be a woman who is characterized by diligence, in my housework, in my teaching, and in my showing sacrificial love to my family.
