"For we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies. Now such persons we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to work in quiet fashion and eat their own bread. But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary of doing good." -II Thessalonians 3:11-13 (NASB)
Many of us know people that are busybodies, people that cannot sit still and are constantly on the go. Some of us may even be one of those people! When we are busy and on the go, we need to stay disciplined and remember the reason for the work we are doing with our lives.
God has given each of us talents and skills that we can use to work for Him. We need to be sure we are focused, disciplined, and using our talents in the most effective way. To know what we should do, we need to be quiet enough to hear God's message. If we are too busy or too loud, we need to slow down, quiet down, and listen to the purpose that God has set for us!
Don't let being a busybody keep you from working for God!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for giving me talents and a purpose. Help me to slow down and listen so that I can use my talents to further Your Kingdom. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
