We make very quick decisions, and can be very indecisive at times. As humans, we want to live fast. Faster phones, faster cars, faster food, and even faster people seem to be the most wanted and famous in their respective fields. People who don’t like to live fast are considered lazy, slobs, and stupid for not wanted to live like the rest of the world. On Earth, most everyone lives in the left lane.

    As the sun rises and its light peaks through the blinds you struggle to muster the strength to get out of bed. As you shuffle your feet to the bathroom to begin your morning routine you start to reminisce of a happier time in life. A splash of water over your face seems refreshing enough but as you look into the mirror you lock into a deep gaze with your reflection. As you look deeper into the gates of your soul you find two people, the old you and the creation you were meant to be in Christ, locked in an ongoing battle for you soul. Where did this conflict come from? Why are you going through such a struggle on the inside? The chief culprit of this inner conflict is the vice known as sloth.
