WISE USE OF YOUR TIME

The Ant and the Grasshopper In a field one summer’s day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart’s content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the nest. “Why not come and chat with me,” said the Grasshopper, “instead of toiling and moiling in that way?” “

I am helping to lay up food for the winter,” said the Ant, “and recommend you to do the same.”

“Why bother about winter “Why bother about winter?” said the Grasshopper; “we have got plenty of food at present.” But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil. When the winter came the Grasshopper had no food, and found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants distributing every day corn and grain from the stores they had collected in the summer. Then the Grasshopper knew: “It is best to prepare for the days of necessity.”

Proverbs 6:6 Go to the ant, you sluggard Proverbs 6:6 Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise, 7 Which, having no captain, Overseer or ruler, 8 Provides her supplies in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest. 9 How long will you slumber, O sluggard? When will you rise from your sleep? 10 A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep -- 11 So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler, And your need like an armed man.

“redeem the time, because the day are evil” (Eph. 5:16).

John 9:4 "I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.

Proverbs 24:30 I went by the field of the lazy man, And by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding; 31 And there it was, all overgrown with thorns; Its surface was covered with nettles; Its stone wall was broken down. 32 When I saw it, I considered it well; I looked on it and received instruction: 33 A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest; 34 So shall your poverty come like a prowler, And your need like an armed man.

Proverbs 20:4 The lazy man will not plow because of winter; He will beg during harvest and have nothing.

Proverbs 26:13 The lazy man says, "There is a lion in the road Proverbs 26:13 The lazy man says, "There is a lion in the road! A fierce lion is in the streets!" 14 As a door turns on its hinges, So does the lazy man on his bed.

The Little Red Hen

If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat (2 Thess. 3:10).

Proverbs 13:4 The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing;

Prov. 26:16 The lazy man is wiser in his own eyes Than seven men who can answer sensibly.

1 Timothy 5:8 But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

Genesis 2:15 Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.

Exodus 23:12 "Six days you shall do your work, and on the seventh day you shall rest, that your ox and your donkey may rest, and the son of your female servant and the stranger may be refreshed.

Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

Mark 6:31 And He said to them, "Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while." For there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might;

Colossians 3:23And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

Matthew 5:16 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Proverbs 22:29 Do you see a man who excels in his work Proverbs 22:29 Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men.

1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Proverbs 10:4 He who has a slack hand becomes poor, But the hand of the diligent makes rich. Proverbs 21:5 The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty, But those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty.

Proverbs 12:24 The hand of the diligent will rule, But the lazy man will be put to forced labor.

Matthew 25:21 Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

Matthew 25:26 You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. 27 'So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. 28 'Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. 29 'For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 'And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

Proverbs 12:27 The lazy man does not roast what he took in hunting, Proverbs 26:14 As a door turns on its hinges, So does the lazy man on his bed. 15 The lazy man buries his hand in the bowl; It wearies him to bring it back to his mouth.
