Lacking self-awareness, lazy people don\u2019t consider themselves lazy, calling themselves realists, not shirkers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lazy people can find an excuse for anything. They consider their opinion superior and so don\u2019t listen to sensible advice. Morning doesn\u2019t work for sluggards because they dislike getting up. If lazy people don\u2019t do anything, they won\u2019t get hustled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like the parable of talents (Matthew 25:14-30)<\/strong><\/a>, when the master leaves money to each trusted servant, the lazy servant does nothing. As a result, the man who made the most money for his master also got the sluggard’s talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n People who want to do something will find a way; sluggards find an excuse\u2014forcing someone to do something they don\u2019t want to do wastes your time. Lazy people will reap what they sew, just like the hard-working person.<\/p>\n\n\n Lord, forgive our laziness. Motivate us to work hard and serve You well. Give us the tools we need to accomplish the tasks You give us. Don\u2019t let us miss anything You have for us. IJNIP. Amen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One minute read.
