Proverbs 24:30-34

    30I passed by the field of the sluggard
         And by the vineyard of the man (A)lacking sense,
    31And behold, it was completely (B)overgrown with thistles;
         Its surface was covered with (C)nettles,
         And its stone (D)wall was broken down.
    32When I saw, I reflected upon it;
         I looked, and received instruction.
    33"(E)A little sleep, a little slumber,
         A little folding of the hands to rest,"
    34Then your poverty will come as a robber
         And your want like an armed man.

Was talking with one of the leaders about how lazy I've become. I entered this semester thinking it was going to finally be my chance to catch my breath and relax before I entered the real world. Instead my relaxation has become a habit. I only want to do what I feel like doing and am avoiding a lot of responsibility. This just makes me stressed and I try even harder to relax by avoiding work and I create a vicious cycle. I'd pray and ask for help from God, but that's too much work.

It's seriously time for me to man up and become the Christian/person I know I should be.
