Good Morning Friends,
“As God’s fellow workers we urge you not to
receive God’s grace in vain. For he says, ‘In the time of my favor I heard you,
and in the day of salvation I helped you.’ I tell you, now is the time of God’s
favor, now is the day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:1-2)
Procrastination is a deadly sin.
If you wait until the last minute to begin
working on an assignment at work you may find it takes more time than you
thought it would and end up having to work late to get it done or doing a half
job in order to get it in on time. That’s not the way to impress your boss and
be given greater responsibility and reward.
In school, procrastination has resulted in a
lot of all-night cramming before a test or all night writing to get a paper
done. Your grades usually suffer.
Wait too long to right a wrong relationship
and you may have waited too long. I’ve gone to many a funeral where there have
been deep regrets among family and friends because they put it off too long and
the opportunity was gone forever.
Procrastinate about cleaning your house and
you’re sure to have unexpected company drop by.
Procrastinate about the little problem with
your car and it may get worse or even leave you stranded by the side of the
road.
Procrastinate about saying “yes” to something
the Lord is asking and the opportunity may slip by.
Procrastinate about receiving Christ and that
could have the most eternally deadly consequences possible! Now is the time of
salvation. This is the opportunity God has given you. You can’t count on more
opportunities!
Procrastination is a deadly sin!
His, by Grace,
Steve
