Weakness and failure

Laziness

Lack of motivation to act, which sometimes hides tiredness, sadness, or discouragement.

What the Bible can tell you

Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise;

Proverbs 6:6

The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied.

Proverbs 13:4

For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: "If anyone is not willing to work, don't let him eat."

2 Thessalonians 3:10

A human reading

It matters to tell laziness apart from exhaustion. If you are truly tired, rest. If it is a lack of purpose, look for one concrete reason to start, even a small one.

This page offers reflection and companionship; it does not replace a professional. If what you feel weighs heavily or lasts for weeks, talk with someone you trust or with a health professional.
