Your Appetite Will Be Abundantly Supplied

God longs to pour out His favor and blessing on you. He longs to show you His goodness and provision. He promises to do His part – but you have to do your part, too. You have to be diligent. The bible says, “...the appetite of the diligent is abundantly supplied.” First of all, be diligent in seeking His ways and following His commands. Then, be diligent with what you have in your hand, with your time and resources.

In Matthew, Jesus tells a parable about three men whose employer entrusted them with some money called talents. Two of the men were diligent and invested the talents and received a great return. The third man was afraid and buried what he was given. The first two men were rewarded and praised for their diligence while the third man was reprimanded.

Follow the example of the first two men and look for ways to be diligent with what you have in your hand. Whatever you do, do it with excellence. Be the best you can be and go the extra mile even when you think it goes unnoticed. God notices even when people don't, and He promises to reward the appetite of the diligent.
