Even though the sun sets, the day does not end. While it is still today, DO what needs to be done.

This will be a little bit of a gloating post only because I am really proud of myself. Why? Well I did something without procrastinating. I am not really a procrastinator, but I had been noticing that more and more I had been putting things off “for later”. You know the thought, “I’ll get to that later” or “I’ll do it tomorrow”. Today such a situation arose, literally my first thought was, “I’ll do it on Wednesday.” The moment I said it in my mind, I felt the my spirit say, “No, do it now”. Normally my response to “do it now” is an argument, which inevitable leads to me NOT doing it, which then leads to things spiraling out of control. I am done with spiraling, (sooooooo overrated 😉 ). I did it immediately, no arguments, no, “Really Lord, right now?!” I just did what the Spirit said to do. Now that I think about maybe I shouldn’t be bragging on myself as much as I should be thanking God for His guidance. The lesson, don’t put it off, if it needs to be done and you have the time and the means to do it, then do. We are not promised later, and many times later just leads to more problems. Don’t spiral, stand firm and “do” what you’re suppose to.

“For as long as it’s still God’s Today, keep each other on your toes so sin doesn’t slow down your reflexes” (Hebrews 3:13, The Message Bible).

So what’s my plan of attack? “Do” what needs to be done, while it is still called today.
