Days after purchasing the used motorhome… while staying in a town just east of Dallas, on a walk one afternoon, we saw a home-made lemonade stand with small bags of chips held to it with clothes-pins, and a note stating the price. Emotion welled up in me (Tamra), remembering having my own lemonade stand as a little girl!

I was so moved and encouraged to see a child being taught responsibility and good work ethic, that I knocked on the door. The grandmother answered the door, she was raising her two grandchildren (because the mother was into drugs). I encouraged the lady, complimented her on her good raising of the children, blessed her, prayed for her and the kids and the whole family.
4 The slothful man yearns for a thing, and his soul finds it not,
Yet the soul of the industrious is conferred with richness.
6 Train up a youth in accordance with his proper way;
Even when he is old he shall not withdraw from it.
7 The rich man rules over the destitute,
And the borrower is slave to the man who lends.
10 For even when we were with you, we gave this charge to you: that “If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.” 11 For we are hearing that some among you are walking disorderly, working at nothing, but are meddling. 12 Now such we are charging and entreating in the Lord Jesus Christ, that, working with quietness, they may be eating their own bread.
When I was growing up, we did NOT get paid money to do chores. No! We got to live warm and dry under a roof, and food on the table, and we did OUR PART by doing chores. We learned GOOD WORK ETHIC! HALLELUJAH! AMEN! We were not spoiled. Not at all.
- The kids did the dishes.
- The kids weeded the gardens. (And we had multiple!)
- The kids swept the kitchen floor after meals.
- The kids helped create an expansion on the house, (digging a basement room, removing dirt, knocking down the THICK cistern wall, etc).
- The kids shucked peas, froze corn, canned tomatoes, etc.
Also, when I was young (beginning around age 10) I had my own paper-route, EARLY in the mornings! EARLY! Even before the sun came up! (This included in rain or shine, snow or heat, delivering papers DAILY. Also collecting the money from the customers every month.) If I wanted to buy candy to eat, or any clothes that I did not NEED, I had to pay for them myself! AMEN! So, I worked.
I encouraged this woman to KEEP GOING! KEEP training these children to WORK and to not be lazy! AMEN! Yahweh’s ways are ALWAYS BEST! AMEN!
Also, Yahweh showed me to then share a bit of my journey as an older teen and as an adult, hardships in life but standing strong in the Scriptures, and offered the lady a book, KEEPING THE FAITH through the UN-thinkable…
She was SO grateful and SO encouraged! Her eyes welled up with tears. She shared a bit about her life, her hardships, her daughters, her grandchildren…
I encouraged her to remain STRONG in Yahweh, to learn to follow His leading and guiding, because as I learned life is SO MUCH EASIER when we follow His way and His advice! He sent His spirit FOR US… to guide us into ALL TRUTH! Let’s hear and heed!
13 “Yet whenever that may be coming—the spirit of truth—it will be guiding you into all the truth, for it will not be speaking from itself, but whatsoever it should be hearing will it be speaking, and of what is coming will it be informing you.”
15 “Who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
Yahweh led me to encourage her to learn from my mistakes as well as my obeying Yahweh, all included in the book, and learn to hear and follow HIS voice! AMEN!
BLESS THEM ALL FATHER! BRING THEM INTO TRUTH and PEACE and HEALTH and TRUE FREEDOM IN YESHUA! AMEN!
8 …yet he who is sowing for the spirit, from the spirit shall be reaping life eonian.
9 Now we may not be despondent in ideal doing, for in due season we shall be reaping, if we do not faint. 10 Consequently, then, as we have occasion, we are working for the good of all, yet specially for the family of faith.
1 Now in that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who, consequently, is greatest in the kingdom of the heavens?” 2 And, calling a little child to Him, He stands it in their midst, 3 and said, “Verily, I am saying to you, If you should not be turning and becoming as little children, you may by no means be entering into the kingdom of the heavens. 4 Who, then, will be humbling himself as this little child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of the heavens. 5 And whosoever should be receiving one such little child in My name is receiving Me.”
10 “Become faithful until death, and I shall be giving you the wreath of life.”
24 And we may be considering one another to incite to love and ideal acts…
