Diligence will Provide Food for Your Household

The world wants cheap and easy work. But that kind of work doesn’t bring food that lasts. Just because God tells us to work from rest, it doesn’t mean we become lazy. In fact, when we become more like Jesus, we end up becoming more diligent.

And diligence is the key to having good success and riches. The riches that truly prosper you and not get you into trouble with authority. For in this verse, it says, “be diligent to know the state of your flocks”. In today’s context, it could mean taking stock of where your time, effort, and money are going. Do you feel like you’re going around in circles in your career? How long do you spend time on social media? Etc.
