Wisdom and Truth Minute: Day 56

Laziness

Proverbs 6:6-8

Hi, I’m Howie Campbell, and this is a Wisdom and Truth Minute.

Some people are self-motivated. They exemplify expressions like “on the ball” or “take the bull by the horns.” They see what needs to be done, and they get right to it. Others need outside motivation. They need someone to tell them what to do. Then there are folks that are just too lazy to do anything. They wonder why they never accomplish anything, why they have nothing.

Apparently, laziness has been around a long time. Here’s what Proverbs 6:6-8 says: “Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways and be wise. Which, having no guide, overseer, or ruler, provides her meat in the summer and gathers her food in the harvest.” You’ve got to motivate!
