Day 271: Get Rich Quick Schemes
Proverbs 28:20
A faithful man will be richly blessed, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.
Principle
Committed and persistent work pays off; get-rich-quick schemes are ripoffs.
A FivestarMan is faithful. He is the kind of man who keeps his word. He has integrity. He is authentic. He has a strong work ethic.
Authentic manhood believes that work is a moral good. That there is a purpose behind work. We know that God gave Man a vocation (a divine calling) before He gave Man the woman.
A faithful man is in contrast to the eager beaver running around, fluttering from one job to the next, inconsistent and wishy-washy. His goal isn’t to work – it is simply riches. There are countless stories of people who received large sums of money, and it destroyed their lives. Riches without purpose are disastrous.
Let’s not be shallow in our thinking to conclude that money destroyed their lives when in reality, the lack of purpose did.
Remember:
Faithfulness brings riches for a reason. Click To Tweet
