No Sluggards

"The way of the sluggard is blocked with thorns,
       but the path of the upright is a highway." 
Proverbs 15:19

Lyssa and her school locker...2009

School is in full swing.  We're five weeks in and the kids seem to be doing well.  I think that they are learning that if you don't work ahead on your homework, and wait until the day before it's due, life can get a bit crazy.  You have to do that when you're taking Pre-Calculus, Physiology and Anatomy, or Introduction to Psychology.  

I love it when I get wind that the kids are working on something that is due "next week".  (It doesn't happen often, but I can pray for that to become more the norm!)

No sluggards here please!

Lord, thank you for the continued work you're doing in Alyssa and Kyle's life.  They are growing into strong and wise young adults.  Please continue to help them learn responsibility, discipline and perseverance in their work and commitments.  Replace any tendency to be a sluggard, and live lazy, with an urgency to do all that they need to do, when they need to do it.  For even when Alyssa and Kyle are working for men, they are working for you!
