Procrastination

Remember what the Bible says: "Today when you hear his voice, don't harden your hearts as Israel did when they rebelled."  (Hebrews 3:15)


   Procrastination is the thief of time.  Time is in God's hands.  He gives us today.  Yesterday is gone and we have no promise of tomorrow.  How we use the time alloted to us today is one of the building blocks of eternity.

   Time is a precious commodity.  Jesus put an emphasis on the proper use of time.  When he told new recruits in Luke 9:59-62 to let the dead bury their own dead, and that no one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God, he was teaching them to control the urgency to waste time on meaningless side issues while the important issue of service went unheeded.

   What is the Spirit saying to us?  Don't put off till tomorrow what the Holy Spirit is impressing upon you to do today.  Tomorrow may be too late.
