Do you know God wants the very best for you and not the crumbs? Are you the one many call diligent (a hard worker), or can you use a little help in that area?
Proverbs 13:4 says, "a sluggard’s appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied." What that verse means is that lazy doesn't cut it, but hard work does. If I can be honest, I have been both. I have been a sluggard (a lazy person) and I have been diligent. And I can say without a doubt that being diligent has paid off in my life. If we're not willing to work hard to get what God has for us, then more than likely, things will go by the wayside and that will be the process that plays out in our lives. God has more for all of us. He knows what lives in our heart, so don't lose hope that you can't get what's yours -- what already has your name on it. Know that God knows what we need and He will help us get there. We just have to play our part in the natural and He takes care of the supernatural.
Remember how the Lord rained down manna for the Israelites in Exodus 16? He can do the same today. With diligence, you can get that dream job you've been waiting for. With diligence, you can get that dream house you've visualized yourself living in. With diligence, you can get that dream spouse you think about often. It's not elusive to you or I, we can get it. With diligence we can all get there. Proverbs 6:4 says,"commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." Nothing worthwhile will come without hard work and sacrifice. And nothing will come to the lazy, I know that by experience. It's about establishing and cultivating a relationship with God for Him to order our steps towards getting what He has for us. That's one of the main ways we will be able to help others get all that God has for them, as well. It's about helping people and advancing the kingdom of God. My point is that we have to be blessed to be a blessing and that takes being diligent.
