Thank you. I'm so glad this helped. I was inspired to write it after my kids kept wanting to sit around and watch T.V. all day and mumble when I would ask them to do something. They have gotten a lot better now. This Bible study helped them understand that being lazy is not cool at all. Blessings ♥, Eren Hi Tiany!

The root of procrastination is not laziness but fear. By facing your fears you'll be able to move forward in your goals. Hope this helps :-) Blessings ♥, Eren Hi Robert,

We all tend to procrastinate on one thing or another.... Is that being lazy? Thanks, Robert Hi Erin,

I'm glad that this Bible study has touched you in such a deep way. I wanted to share these truths to my 3 boys because they had been acting lazy. They needed to understand the value of work and being diligent. Especially because they will one day be heads of families. I'm very happy that this has helped you. May the Lord continue blessing you and your family. In Christ, Eren @Olivia,

Lots of things were going on in my life but thank the Lord they are all resolved now. I have to completely agree with you. The Lord is faithful and when we think all is lost He gives us a solution. If we will always remember to not look at the present circumstances if they are bad but look at things with the eyes of faith then He is faithful and will answer. I love what Jesus said in Matthew 7:7- 11 "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?" I'm so glad that you won those! What a blessing from the Lord. If you would like to sign up to the Embracing Home Newsletter for Christian encouragement for your home and family life, you can do so at the top right.

I've posted a few things here on my site. I wrote a <a href="http://www.embracinghome.com/bible-alphabet-poem-abc/" rel="nofollow">Bible abc poem</a> and made some <a href="http://www.embracinghome.com/bible-alphabet-poem-abc/" rel="nofollow">free Bible coloring pages</a> to go along with the poem. I thought it would be a great way to introduce the alphabet to kids- (through God's truths.) I'm so glad you stopped by. I really enjoyed the post that you wrote (<a href="http://www.steppingintothelight.net/the-blog/2009/5/25/woman-of-god-has-nervous-breakdown.html" rel="nofollow">Woman of God has a nervous breakdown</a> )- very deep. Blessings to you, Eren Hi Diane =)
