When you make a vow to God, don't delay fulfilling it, because He does not delight in fools. Fulfil what you vow.
ECCLESIASTES 5:4 HCSB
"When turbulent times arrive, it's easy (and tempting) to avoid those hard-to-do tasks that you would prefer to avoid altogether. But the habit of procrastination takes a double toll: First , important work goes unfinished, and second, valuable energy is wasted in the process of putting off the things that remain undone." p56
"...stop waiting for the perfect moment and focus, instead, on finding the right moment to do what needs to be done. Then, trust God and get busy. When you do, you'll discover that you and the Father, working together, can accomplish great things ...and that you can accomplish them sooner rather then later."p56
"Not now becomes never" - MARTIN LUTHER KING p57
"Do noble things, do not dream them all day long" - CHARLES KINGSLEY p57
"Do the unpleasant work first and enjoy the rest of the day" - MARIE T.FREEMAN p57
TODAY'S PRAYER
Dear Lord, when I am confronted with things that need to be done, give me the courage and the wisdom to do them now, not later. Amen
