I cannot believe that my previous blog was about laziness too... grin.
Not many days ago I was laying in my bed (as I have been doing a lot lately) watching useless stuff and very apparently wasting time but feeling so guilty at the same time. I'm not making any use of the very precious time given to me by God.
Not many days before that day I read a portion of the book called 'In praise of slowness' which educated me about 'time-sickness' which is the fear that time is fleating and 'karachi' meaning death by overwork. The remedy was to slow down. I who was not at all time-sick, should not have paid heed to such an article. I nevertheless did and did not do my work. Messed up one of my assignments .I don't regret that very much as I should. Luckily it was only worth a few points.
My posts seldom talked about something I messed up. But this one will end with a sad note that I did not still succeed in overcoming laziness and continue to be a slave of worldly comforts such a sleep and rest.
Rest is very much needed but what is a restful body with a restless mind and soul.
This week in the small group meeting we happened to discuss the parable of the Vine and the branches. How the branches that are not fruitful are being chopped off and burned by the vinedresser. I don't want to be not fruitful.
Ok let me look at it in another way, what if I kept working and do not waste any time. Am I called fruitful then? It's important that I spend time doing the right things. As a branch if I try to take root into the ground I will not be fruitful, for lack of sunlight will cause wilt in turn. I will try to be a good active girl from on , find the right things to do, and rest well.. not just my body but my mind and soul too and be fruitful. I would greatly depend on your prayers for this!
This post is long already,I ll probably have more posts about laziness. Hopefully it should be about how I conquered it !!!! Muhuhahahahahaha...
P.S.: Wouldn't you agree that writing a blog is a fruitful thing to do? Yay!
Also !!!! Don't you smell Christmas in the air? !!!!!!
