Ecclesiastes 5:12 The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much.
[Patriarchs & Prophets pp 601>602] Every student should devote a portion of each day to active labor. Thus habits of industry would be formed and a spirit of self-reliance encouraged, while the youth would be shielded from many evil and degrading practices that are so often the result of idleness. And this is all in keeping with the primary object of education, for in encouraging activity, diligence, and purity we are coming into harmony with the Creator. Let the youth be led to understand the object of their creation, to honor God and bless their fellow men.
Let them see the tender love which the Father in heaven has manifested toward them, and the high destiny for which the discipline of this life is to prepare them, the dignity and honor to which they are called, even to become the sons of God, and thousands would turn with contempt and loathing from the low and selfish aims and the frivolous pleasures that have hitherto engrossed them. They would learn to hate sin and to shun it, not merely from hope of reward or fear of punishment, but from a sense of its inherent baseness, because it would be a degrading of their God-given powers, a stain upon their Godlike manhood.
Proverbs 18:9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. "Good night" and God bless!
