TRUTH: Working hands and minds have less time for worry and fear

1. Idleness is contagious
2 Thessalonians 3:6 :: In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching you received from us.

2. There is always more to be done
2 Thessalonians 3:8 :: nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you.

3. People are watching
2 Thessalonians 3:9 :: We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate.

4. Be busy in the right work
2 Thessalonians 3:11 :: We hear that some among you are idle and disruptive. They are not busy; they are busybodies.

5. Play the long game
2 Thessalonians 3:13 :: And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.

6. Peace will have victory over fear
2 Thessalonians 3:16 :: Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
