So don’t be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time (Matthew 6:34).

Is not all human life a struggle? (Job 7:10) . . . we work hard and continue to struggle for our hope is in the living God (1Timothy 4:10).

And may the Lord our God show us his approval and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful! (Psalm  90:17)

It is pleasant to see dreams come true . . . hard work brings rewards . . . those who work hard will prosper . . . Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity (Proverbs 13:19; 12:14; 13:3; 21:5).

So God has given both his promise and his oath . . . This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls (Hebrews 6:18, 19).

If we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could also control ourselves in every other way.  . . . blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely . . . this is not right! (James 3:1, 10)

Don’t sin by letting anger control you (Ephesians 4:26)

. . . your real life is hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). For to me, living means living for Christ (Philippians 1:21).

Even while we were with you, we gave you this command: “Those unwilling to work will not get to eat” (2 Thessalonians 3:10).

Wisdom: “Store my commands in your heart. If you do this, you will live many years,  and your life will be satisfying” (Proverbs 3:1-2).
