Proverbs 10:4

Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth.

It is one thing to start a project; it is another to finish a project to the end. When we determine to do something, it is vital that we “count the cost.” Optimism is a wonderful thing, but when applied to getting things done, optimism usually underestimates what it will take to complete a task. If you want to prosper, make sure to begin with the end in mind, otherwise your hand could become slack and your efforts could miss the mark.  ~ Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org
