Play 5:32
North & Narrow
Find true north. Walk the narrow way.
Hook
You have learned to answer with a clear yes or no, and to give yourself to steady work. Today we deepen that habit. Speak a dated answer that others can trust. Take one small step that moves a real task forward.
Theme Context
Proverbs thirteen teaches a seasoned pace. Wealth gathered in haste thins out. Wealth gathered with honest work grows. Wise friends shape your steps. Delayed hopes can weigh the heart, yet fulfilled desire is a tree of life.
KJV Text
“Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.”
Explanation: Fast gain thins out; patient work grows.
