"The lives of good people are brightly lit streets; the lives of the wicked are dark alleys."
Proverbs 13:9
"Heart Nebula" photo by Matt RussellI don't like to be out in the city at night. Statistics show that criminals enjoy the cover of dark and feel more free to assault, drug deal, murder, rob, rape, etc. In addition, there are more drunk driving accidents at night. When I do go out at night, I am extra viligent and alert.
People reveal their personalities in how they treat people. Some are dark and some are light. I enjoy being around positive people who seem to exude the excitement and love of life and the knowing their eternal future. They know God and it shows. They truly have a bright life.
"A Glimpse of Heaven"
Proverbs 13:11 - "Easy come, easy go, but steady diligence pays off."
My father used to tell me "If it were easy, everybody would be doing it." Meaning, that nothing worth having is going to take work. Diligence however can seem like fool's work to many. Sometime people who are dedicated are seen as being odd.
I was commenting to a few business associates about the importance of diligence. I gave a great example of opportunities that people had missed, because they simply were not good at returning calls or replying to relevant e-mails. If you do this, you are not being diligent in all matters. You never know what opportunities are coming your way and should make it a point to address every matter (a little additional effort makes all of the difference).
On Mission, On Assignment, and in the ZONE!
