Do not overwork to be rich;
Because of your own understanding, cease!
Proverbs 23:4 NKJV
The bigger our appetites are for more the more we have to work. Multiple times God tells us that working hard is the way to provide for your family. The problem is when we desire riches instead of being content with enough. That is when working hard turns into overworking. More work requires less time with family & can strain relationships. It can also means more stress & often more medical problems.
So what is the remedy? Use the good sense God gave us! Think, be wise, and stop! Rest, recharge, deepen relationships, and praise God.
