HARDWORK PAYS

Proverbs 10:4
Lazy people are soon poor;
hard workers get rich.



The Bible teaches that if you want to gain wealth, there’s no substitute for hard work. According to Forbes’ Magazine, Asia's richest man, Li Ka-Shing dropped out of school at age 15 after his father died, to be a factory worker in a true “rags-to-riches” tale. The article goes on to say that nearly two-thirds of the world's 946 billionaires made their fortunes from scratch, relying on grit and determination, ignoring that they had not been born into wealth. These people are living proof of the lessons taught by the Word of God. In fact, this particular lesson applies not only to becoming rich, but anything that a person should desire to improve upon and achieve. No pun intended, but hard work… pays.
