Theme: MAINTAINING GOOD WORKS

Text: “But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.” – 2 Thessalonians 3:13.

 

Comment: When, in Psalm 73 verse 2, the psalmist stated that his feet were almost gone, he meant that, he almost got discouraged, considering the prosperity of the unjust. Being humans, we may sometimes become uneasy, when it seems no one notices our labours. No matter how hard we try, it is as if we have not done anything because there are no instant changes in our conditions, by way of improvement. The answer is not far-fetched. The Holy Scriptures explain, “but time and chance happeneth to them all.” (Ecclesiastes 9:11) So, no one can delay God’s time or force Him to act before His time. (Ecclesiastes 3:1;  Isaiah 3:10;  Psalm 126:5,6) St. Paul exhorts: “Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.” (1 Timothy 5:25) With this knowledge, we should not fret ourselves because of the prosperity of others.
