“And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.~ Psa. 39:7
A good question to ask yourself. I find all of us, in one way or the other, have made a profession out of procrastination. Some of us have become very proficient in it. We like to wait for the turn of the year hoping circumstances will change, or when we have arrived, wherever that might be.
There is a lot of truth in the little quip, “Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.” One of my philosophies in life, though I do not always adhere to it is, “When you know what God wants you to do, do it. If you don’t, the devil will talk you out of it.”
Again, one of my homespun sayings will fit here: “I’m gonna never done nothin!” Begin now where you are. We’re not promised tomorrow, only today.
Let’s lay aside future resolutions and resolve today to take care of the task at hand!
