Proverbs 28:19

Proverbs 28:19  He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough. Do farmers have much to do in the wintertime? In the wintertime farmers fix their tractors and plows and get ready for springtime planting. As soon as the ground is warm enough, the farmer is working long hours to get his seeds into the ground so that they will begin to grow. But if the farmer is busy playing video games or texting on his cell phone, well he will not have his seeds in the ground in time. They will not grow into plants and not have corn or beans or tomatoes on them in the fall. If you hang around useless people - vain people - you will not get your work done because they will want you to play all day with them. The vain people don't worry about getting their work done and they don't care if you get yours done. Actually, they don't want you to get your work done because it will make them feel bad because they aren't doing their work. It is important that you have the right kind of friends - friends that help you and not hurt you. Do your work when you are supposed to. Then you will enjoy sitting back and relaxing. But do your work first!
