Talk is Cheap - Ecclesiastes 5-6

Ecclesiastes 5:3 (ESV Strong's)
For a dream comes with much business, and a fool's voice with many words.

Talk is Cheap

Solomon is giving us a formula for making sure our talk does not outpace our walk.   He is telling us in this proverb that dreams only come true when we do the “toil” or “tasks” (the meaning of the Hebrew word translated “business” in the above task) related to the dream.   It is ONLY a dream if the work is not their to make the dream come true.     Many people have “dreamed” of having many things, but only those who do the work will see their dream “come” true.   This little section in Ecclesiastes starts with a word about “rash” words.  It ends with this verse.   Solomon’s point is to be careful that our words don’t start writing checks our lives and our work can’t cash.   We need to make sure our walk matches our talk.   It is better to have the walk without the talk than the talk without the walk.
