The other day I took a liberty, I slept in.
I could have done many things that needed to be done, but I decided to sleep later than normal that day. It sounds lazy, but consider the fact that I had many 14+ hour days for many weeks straight. Mind you there were probably a day or two within that time that I got a break.
I don't care for sleeping in late, it makes me feel like I am being lazy, and although we do need to rest, most of the time we take our "resting" to extremes. We too often lag around when we should be productive. We turn an hour break into 4 or 5 hours and we often spend those times preoocupied with worthless activity that does nothing to build us into better people.
THE BIBLE SAYS A FEW THINGS ABOUT LAZINESS...read Proverbs!
LAZINESS prevents us from working. Often blocking blessings we could be sowing into our lives with good spiritual activity.
REMEMBER WE ARE NATURALLY SINFUL IN HABIT.
People are disinclined to activity.
They don't like activity
They love easy.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR WICKED HEART.
Are you a thief, gambler, or a Beggar
(Prov 19:15; 10:4; 24:30-34)
If you tend to be lazy, then you display characteristics of theives, beggars, and gamblers. Which means like everyone else, you have things that need adjusting or even a good annihilation out of your life.
THE TIME TO CHANGE IS NOW
1)Don't put off tomorrow what can be done today.
2)Look into your heart and see where the flesh has control..."it pays to discover."
3)Humbly allow God to change your life.
LET THE PROCESS BEGIN!
