Title: Idleness
She looks well to how things go in her household, and the bread of idleness (gossip, discontent, and self-pity) she will not eat. [I Tim. 5:13; Tit. 2:5.]
Proverbs 31:27
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.2 Thessalonians 3:10
Devotion : A virtuous wife is the mistress of her home and is fully in charge of her household. She does not compromise on quality and believes that the idle hand must not eat, 2 Thessalonians 3:10.
In fact she practices leadership by example, therefore, she does not entertain idleness in her home. She demonstrates industriousness in her household for her children to emulate.
The husband too must provide for his household. Any man who fails to provide for his own house is worst than an infidel. 1Tim. 5:8.
We must therefore have a job and not rely on our virtuous wives to feed us.
I encourage us parents to demonstrate our industriousness to our children so that they will emulate us. They must be involved at home in the works of the family. As they grow give them leadership positions.
Idle hands leads to evil thoughts which in turn breeds evil young persons who indulge in money rituals, graft, robbery etc. The end therefrom is death both now and in hell. May that not be our portion.
