Against Laziness

Lord, I need to be re-charged.
The visions and dreams
That have propelled me to continue
Have been dimmed and faded to monotony.
The aspirations, vows, and promises
Are now withered and blighted
I have sought the easy way
Drawn back from the road that is hard.
I have been fond of giving myself
To daydreaming
Of what I am going to do sometime
Yet have been so slow in getting started
Lead me to new ideas and new attitudes
And a new spirit.
Amen.

Bible Inspiration: 1 Thessalonians 5:14
We urge you to warn the idle, encourage those who feel discouraged, sustain the weak, have patience with everyone..

    great suitable prayer. I’m revived someone else is going through the same thing. I just read something that kept going on about ‘the sluggard’ that was not as much help! Thank you.
