Proverbs 13:4 The sluggard craves and gets nothing, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.
diligent: constant in effort to accomplish something; attentive and persistent in doing anything: a diligent student.
Do you ever really want something so bad you can taste it? We all live or life wanting and desiring things yet how many of us really try to get it? God has really been pushing me to live a diligent life, consistantly trying my hardest to live a life after God's own heart! Yet so many times what I truly want takes effort and work.
So what?
Do you have dreams or thing that you desire? To get that desire and be truly satisfied with the outcome we have to put work and effort into it! Write down 3 things you desire today (to go the college, get better grades, buy a car, read the bible more consistantly) and then write 3 things you can do each day to work at accomplishing those desires (get a job, get up in the morning and read the bible, go to study groups to get better grades, ask your teacher for help)
Are you willing to work to get and be truly satisfied?
