Ezekiel 16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. 50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.
We are just observing a particular trend, to see why we are heading for a crossroad, in the context of the substitute work week that is gaining momentum. In days gone by, persons and families would be found at the grocery, supermarket, or the mall, where they would spend hours on end shopping.
This obviously included a whole lot of walking so the shoppers would unconsciously be getting a certain amount of exercise as they would walk from store to store and from aisle to aisle, and thereby be burning calories. But gradually, going to shop in person was dumbed down by the likes of Amazon, Uber Eats, and Door Dash.
Then Covid came, and shut everything down across the world, and what used to be a convenience had now become a necessity, as individuals and families found it necessary to shop and work from home. In many cases, this resulted in less activity, and more free time, in so much that employees are loathed to go back to the office.
Proverbs 6:6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: 7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 8 Provides her meat in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest. 9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? 10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: 11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
