Proverbs 21:5-8

Proverbs 21:5 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.
6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
7 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
8 The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.
 
This first verse deals with the difference between someone who works hard for what they have and someone who who wants all he can get in short amount of time with out having to do much and end up still wanting.The second verse tells of the one who lies to get what he has and we know God does not like lying but coupled with deceiving people for gain just adds to the punishment that will dealt them. Verse 7 talks again of the ones who rob people to get what they have not realizing they are only robbing themselves of eternal life with Jesus. Lastly we see that that the way of man without God is crooked and perverse and is a stranger to God, while the pure in heart that desire to follow will do what is right in the sight of God In these verses we see more ways man can lose sight of salvation so attend a church today of your choosing and let God fill you with His Holy Spirit.
