Just a brief “sip” from my time of “Coffee with the Lord” this Monday morning – the beginning of another “workweek”…
Of Solomon. “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain! It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep.” (From Psalm 127:1-2 ESV)
Anyone who knows the history of Solomon as King in the Bible is aware of his wisdom and industry… He was responsible for the construction of the temple and oversight and development of Jerusalem.
Here’s the comment I jotted in the margin of my Bible this morning based upon these verses… “Work hard! Trust the Lord… then sleep soundly!” Seems like good advice to me!
