—2 Thessalonians 3:6-13
by: Kay Samuels.
My mother always said, “Satan finds work for idle hands.” This probably goes hand in hand with Paul’s instruction, “If you do not work, you should not eat.” From an early age I understood the importance of work. I find that those who work typically know that as well. Work is essential to our existence. God placed man in the garden to work. God is always at work . Hard work is rewarded. People who are idle have too much time on their hands and often meddle and cause problems. This led Paul to say, “And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.” Work!
