Thought for Meditation
(And a little bit of politics)
The welfare mindset tends to think selfishly.
It tends to be concerned only with what it can acquire for itself,
at no expense of effort or energy to itself;
and it tends not to consider at all what this might cost someone else.

2 Thessalonians 3:10-11
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you,
that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly,
working not at all, but are busybodies.
1 Thessalonians 4:9-12
But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you:
for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia:
but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;
and that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
that ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
Philippians 2:4
Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Ephesians 4:28
Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour,
working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
