This is Zephyr.
She is the most discontent, unhappy cat
I've ever seen in my life.
She is selfish plain and simple.
All she can think about is HER belly.
This is not done in silence.
When I get up (early),
she's been up for hours wasting away.
She's died of starvation 8 times.
Don't be like Zephyr.
The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment
by Jeremiah Burroughs
"Who are the men who are most discontented?
but idle persons--
for they lie around and find fault
with everything."
(page 50-51)
Zephyr is an unhappy cat.
Not a happy camper.
How about you?
IDLE
lazy, slothful, work-shy (ha ha)
shiftless, inactive, sluggish (like a bad drain)
without purpose
DISCONTENT
dissatisfaction with circumstances
displeasure
Have you no weeds to pull?
No list to make or finish?
No bread to bake?
Nothing to mend or fix?
No corner to clean?
Nothing to learn?
No letter to write?
No project to finish?
No soul to cheer up?
No good book to read?
The more constructive things we do,
the better we feel.
(watching TV all day is never fulfilling)
Self inflicted boredom is a horrible thing.
Don't be that person.
Proverbs 19:15
Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep;
and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
Proverbs 19:15
Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep;
and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
