hard workNot to long ago I wrote a post titled, “What Does The Bible Say About Blogging.”  Of course the Bible doesn’t blogging by name and for many people blogging means different things.  For some it is just a hobby and for others it is a business.  For me it is both.  I have my hobby blogs such as A Mom Speaks and then I have my business blogs like this one and Christian Mom PLR.  I also have a ministry blog with a fellow sister in Christ, Faithful Bloggers.  So for me, blogging means a lot of different things.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 tells us, “The thing that hath been, it [is that] which shall be; and that which is done [is] that which shall be done: and [there is] no new [thing] under the sun.“  Since there is nothing new under the sun, I wanted to know what the Bible would say about blogging.  I started by doing a topical study on business since I have a couple blogs that I operate as a business.  The Bible has a lot to say about business and working.

One verse is Proverbs 14:23, “In all labor there is profit, But idle chatter [leads] only to poverty.“  Labor in this context means “painful diligence.”  Basically this is saying that if you work hard there will be a profit.  You can’t be lazy and just expect the money to start rolling in.  Pray, work hard, and pray some more and that will bring profit.
