Do It Now!

James 1:6 – “Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind.”
    Last evening I was discussing with a close friend my push to squelch the trappings of procrastination as we delve into this Lenten season.  While many use this time of fasting and prayer to eliminate certain food groups or habits from their daily use, my design is to increase activity to take some much neglected projects from idling on the back burner onto the foreground and turning up the heat.
     What have you allowed to sit idle for too long so that now it seems as if its fire has gone cold? Don’t get discouraged or believe too much time has passed and those desires are awash.  As we continued to talk my friend affirmed that while we might think that we are totally at fault for letting inactivity occur, sometimes God allows us some idling time as he orchestrates other situations, people, and circumstances on our behalf.  Now is the time to shake off the cobwebs, stir up things that have gotten too settled and breathe new life into old projects.  Our steps are ordered by the Lord and now it’s time to get busy and put some pep into our steps and get things done. No more procrastination. Do It Now! 
      Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day! Be blessed!  Dr. JoAnn
