Procrastination

Someone described procrastination as “the thief of time,” and this seems to fit with the sense of urgency Jesus wanted His followers to adopt. Once, Jesus invited a man to follow Him, saying, “Come, follow Me.” But the man said, “First let me return home and bury my father” (Luke 9:59). Jesus replied, “Your duty is to go and preach about the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:60). Then another man said, “I will follow you, but first let me say good-bye to my family” (Luke 9:61). Jesus, who sees past our excuses, replied: “Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62). God has called each of us to use our spiritual gifts to serve Him. If He’s tapping you on the shoulder today, asking, “When will you serve Me?” don’t put it off. Let Him know that you’re available—first time.

O Lord cause me to satisfy.......................

O Lord, cause me to satisfy every condition that will lead me to the position you have ordained for me, in the name of Jesus.

Earth is not our Final Home

We’re not completely happy here because we’re not supposed to be! Earth is not our final home; we were created for something much better.

Time

“Time is your most precious gift because you only have a set amount of it. You can make more money, but you can't make more time. When you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back. Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time. It is not enough to just say relationships are important; we must prove it by investing time in them. Words alone are worthless. "My children, our love should not be just words and talk; it must be true love, which shows itself in action." Relationships take time and effort, and the best way to spell love is "T-I-M-E.”

Except two shall agree .......

The Bible says except two shall agree it will not come to pass. Stop going round town looking for special prayers, put your mind to work, there is nothing as dangerous as laziness of the mind. There is nothing as frustrating as succeeding in the wrong assignment.


It is a waste of time to run on the wrong road and expect to win the trophy of life.

Most people in life think that success is about good work and prayer alone. I have seen a lot of prayer warriors who are extremely poor. Faith without works is dead. It’s better to try and fail than not to try at all.

Everyone has failed at one time or the other. Those that succeeded are those that are determined.

People have succeeded not because they have more ability than people who have not yet succeeded but because they applied themselves harder and stuck to it longer. They kept at it irrespective of the situation or circumstances depicts.
