So good, Janell. This especially hit hard: “I know what I need to do and Sloth whispers, sure, go ahead and do it. But it won’t really matter, because you don’t matter.”

I think that lie is so compelling because we believe the opposite of sloth is “productivity” or “achievement.” If we valued diligence, faithfulness and believed it was enough to offer to God, how much freer would we feel?

Thank you, Tabitha. Yes, exactly! Sloth likes to hide behind productivity 😕
