Proverbs 20:4 Sluggards do not plow in season; so at harvest time they look but find nothing.
Can’t you almost sense the hope turned into disappointment in this #proverb The foolish sluggard is hoping for a miracle, maybe this time God will bless me or I’ll be lucky. And then they get to the field and see nothing and dive into regret and remorse. Blaming everything else.
I believe in miracles. God has gone way above and beyond in my life. I’m glad that I did not get what I deserve. Grace and miracles are real. But so is hard work. And the law of sowing and reaping.
One of my biggest fears is getting to the end of my life knowing I had a lot of great ideas, a lot of could haves that I never executed on.
I don’t like the false pride and cynicism that wells up in my heart when I stay in dream and fantasy mode. Doing is the great equalizer.
I’m so grateful for ALL the blessings from the Lord. Things I had no control over. The grace that fixed the things I mess(ed) up. I wouldn’t be here without it. But I wanna step up my game. Be faithful, prudent and diligent. And partner Gods blessings with human faithfulness and grit to see what we can do as we partner bringing His kingdom to earth.
