Why Laziness Is a Sin and 5 Ways We Can Flee from It

“In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness” (Philippians 2:5-7). Jesus came to earth to work. He modeled a balanced life.  Time with His Father was a priority. He worked performing miracles and teaching, fostered relationships with friends, and took time to rest. Laziness is an aversion to work, slowing our pace and productivity. “Laziness is not the passivity it pretends to be,” writes Paul Maxwell for Desiring God, “It is active obedience to something other than Jesus Christ's message and the truth.” A balanced life includes a Sabbath rest or room to breathe. But Sabbath is resting with the intent on surrendering our efforts to God, not in setting goals to sit down and be idle or bored. When we’re doing the work of the Lord, His balance produces joy both while we work and while we rest, wasting no purpose for any of it.

" I reply you are not bored there is too much in life to do - " You Are Lazy! "
