A Little Sleep

33 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
34 so shall thy poverty come as one that traveleth; and thy want as an armed man.

Throughout the Bible we are reminded that we are to be industrious and not lazy. This is an especially good reminder in this day and age where we see so many relying on the government to support them instead of going out and working (and I'm speaking of those that chronically rely on the government). But living like that is not pleasing to the Lord, and we can rest in the assurance that He will bless us for our work.
