In the morning sow your seed, and at evening withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good. (Ecclesiastes 11:6 ESV)
This proverb is encouraging when I am having a day of confusion. By confusion I mean being faced with priorities of equal value and limited time in which to accomplish my tasks and desires. This proverb is a call to action... doing what we can do when we can do it.
The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. (Ecclesiastes 12:13 ESV)
If I fulfill the tenants of this proverb I can rest with satisfaction. God is sovereign and he desires my worship and allegiance to his written word.
