Proverbs 20:11-13 -- On Sleeping and Doing

"Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.
Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread."
Proverbs 20:11-13


A good reminder that we need to be out there observing and learning and doing good rather than just sleeping all day. Sleep, like food, isn't something we can give up, and it isn't a bad or negative thing, but we should get a healthy amount and not make it the center of our lives. :) Anything that we focus on more than God can be a detriment. :)

Today, let's learn and do good, and think of ways to do even better. :) Let's get enough sleep, but also make sure we're earning our bread. :)
