The Time Is Now

When you think about your plans/hopes/dreams when do you imagine them happening?  Is it a “someday” thought?  Is it “soon but not yet”?  Or is it now?  I don’t know about you but many times I fall into the soon but not yet category.  I want to learn to surf, but I just haven’t quite found the time.  I’m gonna go on a diet, but I’ll start soon.  I’m gonna redo my blog, but I’ll get to it next week.  I wanna start a new Bible reading plan, but I’m exhausted tonight.

Sometimes there are good, honest reasons for putting something off.  Spending time with my wife and daughter is more important that working on the Jeep.  I have a big step to take but feel God saying wait.  I need to start my new workout, but I’m sick.  Et cetera, et cetera.  But how often in your life is right time now?  Start the new habit now.  Start reading your Bible now.  Start praying for someone now.  Start saving now.

Whatever it is do it now.  Is your inaction holding back something amazing that God is trying to do?  Is your procrastination keeping you from doing something worthwhile?  Stop dragging your feet and get to doing what God has for you NOW!
