HG Update: Chronicles of the Lazy PART II

Today we did something unique. It was announcements and the message first, then only worship and praise.

Today we continue to see on what the book of proverbs have to say on the lazy man and the industrious man.

Proverbs 12:27
Lazy people don't even cook the game they catch, but the diligent make use of anything they find.
Those who are diligent will look after their possessions and make the most of them. Unlike the lazy who chucks their things everywhere. Oh man I gotta clean up my room. As well as make the most of what he has, a diligent man is also willing to preserve and prolong the use of his possessions. Examples include wiping your CD's after listening to them, exercise so you don't get health problems, keep your Nike shoes where your dogs can't reach etc.


Proverbs 21:5
The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty. But those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty.
God gives assurance to the diligent that their plans will one day lead to success regardless of the time span. On the other hand, the plans of the lazy will lead to failure. This is because their plans are either of crime or gambling. That's why many people go for the loan sharks and make a mess. That's why almost no Mafia Godfather has died without being shot or not in jail. The Lord is a just and incorruptible judge.

Proverbs 12:24
The hand of the diligent will rule. But the lazy man will be put to force labor.
Look at all the MPKT guys sweeping up. You can tell by the way a man talks, dresses, eats if he's diligent or not. I know many political leaders are corrupted, but they stand out because they're diligent. They have to think a lot on every single issue. Examples include which country to send troops? How much to spend on education or welfare? How much will the next increase of petroleum price be? All these will add up to stress and insomnia.

Proverbs 22:29
Do you see a man diligent and skillful in his dealings? He will stand before kings, he will not stand before obscure men.
If we are to gain headline-busting success and get a Datukship or Tan Sri, we are to work hard, I mean VERY HARD. Our Malaysian pioneers like Datuk Jimmy Choo, Datuk Nicol David among others had to make decisions, sacrifice money and time to make ends meet. As a reward, they meet the Prime Minister and King and stand as the country's finest. The same goes to us students, If we work hard, we can stand before the headmaster and receive a certificate. If we don't, we will end up shaking hands with disciplinary teachers like Cikgu Maslow.
