A Study of Contrasts

How valuable is a life? Ill gotten gain is of no value verses righteousness which delivers from death. Righteousness satisfies. Diligent people work hard but pay attention to detail and diligent hands bring wealth. God will reward hard work. 'Do you see a man skilled in his work, he will stand before kings.' If we are diligent we will be a standout in the workforce. Lazy hands bring poverty. A chattering fool comes to ruin, that is one who has no regard for God and who talks all the time. The Lord is personally involved and He will not let the righteous go hungry. We are to obey God. The most important thing is to know God because He is personally looking after His children.
