Ecclesiastes 10: 18
By much slothfulness the building decayeth: and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.
Deuteronomy 32: 28
They are a nation void of counsel; neither is there any understanding in them.
We always want to hire reliable people that we can trust to get the job done right the first time around. When you hire an unreliable person, it is frustrating and annoying. I want things done in a professional and precise manner. I want a worker that I do not have to stand around and watch to ensure he is doing his job the way I would.
Years ago, my Father hired a carpenter to put up ceiling tile. The carpenter cut around the light fixture instead of taking it down and making a small hole for the wires to fit through. My Father had to redo the ceiling tile himself. I had to tell a carpenter how to put a new windowsill in years ago.
An unreliable car can be beyond annoying. The vehicle may not start when needed or never gets you from point A to point B. I sold that car and was glad to be rid of it. The car I sold was a 1987 car that I had bought used.
We need reliable people who we can always count on. God is always faithful, and we can always rely on God to be by our side in a crisis. God helps us when we need him the most.
What does it mean to be reliable? Being reliable means you will show up to work on time and get things done quickly and professionally. You will be there when your friends, family, or relatives need you. There is no valid reason for people to be unreliable. God is reliable 24/7.
