Proverbs 26:13-16 "A sluggard says, “There’s a lion in the road, a fierce lion roaming the streets!” As a door turns on its hinges, so a sluggard turns on his bed. A sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth. A sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven people who answer discreetly."
Proverbs 26 speaks to the fool, the sluggard and the gossip. What a triple play!
But today we talk about the sluggard.
Solomon writes that the sluggard i.e. the lazy person or the slacker says that there is a lion in the streets. Why does the slacker say this? So that he has an excuse to not go out and do meaningful work. Instead, he rolls around in his bed going nowhere. The next thing seems to be an exaggeration or a large joke - there is one guy so lazy that he can't even bring his hand from the bowl into his mouth to feed himself! And then the icing on the cake - he sees himself wiser than seven wise men.
We see here a man stuck in laziness and finding creative ways to stay there.
Why are you not doing what you know you should be doing? Why are you not saving up towards your emergency fund or retirement? Why are you not starting that business you keep talking about?
What are your excuses? There is a lion in the street?
Get out of bed, go outside, kill your food and drag it back home to feed your family. A bit dramatic, but hopefully you get the picture.
