Christ calls His body, the church, to move and spread the message about eternity, about God's glory and the love He has for all of us by sending Jesus for our sins. Our lives are not to be passive and stagnant, but moving and active. For Him.

but....I'm lazy! part 1
Something that has been on my heart over the past month is laziness. It started with the realization that my time is often spent thinking, therefore I do not watch movies or tv shows anymore. If I do, it is at the request of people I love or to catch the end of a season that I had been committed to all year, like Glee, Grey's Anatomy or Vampire Diaries. Granted, those shows are not keeping my best interests in mind, but I still push to watch them because of curiosity for the written work being produced. How will the stories end? Anyways. My point is, I don't listen to secular music 24/7, watch movies, read secular books or magazines, and play games anymore. I just don't have the time or the need. Now, honestly, I am in my dorm room most of the day like whenever I don't have somewhere else to be. So really, it looks like Iam a slug, yes? I want to rebuke that. What good does it do me to be outside running errands all day? Or what about going to the gym or walking outside? If I'm inside, I'm reflecting on my thoughts, praying, doing homework, talking to others and praying for them, or resting for a short bit as the rest of my day will wear me out. I don't find that to be lazy. But there is more to come on this...just swallow that concept of filling time with entertainment. Does that mean we are lazy?
