“Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.” (Proverbs 23:4, KJV)
I have some more thoughts on side hustles, in light of recent news from my main bread and butter.
First of all, USD 290 is still hiring for custodians, including that same part time position.
Secondly, depending on the new wage I intend to get, combined with still being short said part-time custodian, and other hits of fortune coming my way, at this time, there's really less and less of a reason for me to do ANY side-hustles at all!
All this came after I made some more YouTube videos on my secular channel and Adapanos Ministries, in addition to publishing my book. Why did I do all this? Because I wanted to TRY. I didn't care if it made money or not. I just wanted to put it out there, and see if anyone was interested. I'm inspired by the following Scripture:
Ecc 11:6 In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
So, I guess I did sow my seed (the seed of industry, not of reproduction!), and so far, my main bread and butter is prospering. Now, could something happen where I'm suddenly out of a job, I suddenly get sick, I get disabled, etc? Of course. "Time and chance happeneth to them all." says Ecclesiastes 9:11b.
But for now, my income is looking even more steady as a lead custodian in my building. So, I must be content:
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
(Php 4:11-12)
