Family happenings..

  
                 Stop and smell the flowers....

Summer is in full swing.. Alex, Sammy- are going in  every direction. Alex working rides at Hershey and Sammy security in the parking lot, then Sammy also working  a second job. They are constantly on the move. I rejoice that they are busy. 

Lazy, and procrastination has been an issue with my young men. They lay around the house, as if there is nothing to do if they dont have to go to work. Their rooms are a like a tornado hit it, their laundry is unattended and yet they act like they have all the time in the world. Needless to say it drives me crazy. 

How do you get young men to get out of a habit of procrastination and Laziness? 

What does the Word of God say about laziness?

Procrastination is a developed habit to delay whatever it is you are expected to do.

The Word has so much to say on Laziness

Proverbs 18:9
The one who is truly lazy in his work is brother to a vandal.

Proverbs 19:15
Laziness induces deep sleep and lazy person will go hungry

Proverbs 12:24 
The  diligent hand will rule, but laziness will lead to forced labor. 

Proverbs 6:6-11

In this verse it reminds us that we are to work diligently without being told, or directed, and that is we have a responsibility to meet our needs. 


Colossians 3:23

Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically, as something done for the Lord and  not for men.

we forget that we are to do all things for the sake of Christ. That as we obey, as we bless, and we work we do it to glorify CHRIST. 

Lord Guide us with your truth as we seek to break habits in our lives. 

Solo para Gloria de Dios

Whisperings

Some of you know I have lots of children. Seven to be exact, and most of them are older and Most of them are young men except for one boy.   Lately one of my youngmen have been struggling. He works at an amusement park, and is around people all day long who standards, or morals do not quite match what we(through God's grace) have tried to instill in him. All day long he is whispered at about what he should have, and what he should be doing at "his age".  Today while reading the Word these verses stood out.... Proverbs 23 15  My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. 16  Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things. 17  Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the  Lord  all the day long His heart started to "envy" what these whisperers were saying to him and started to feel like he has been missing out on something in life.  Really?  How do we envy sinners?  How do we as professing believers say "

Day two
