Start Today

He who watches the wind [waiting for all conditions to be perfect] will not sow [seed], and he who looks at the clouds will not reap [a harvest].

(Ecclesiastes 11:4 AMP)

Today is the day you can begin what you have long waited for conditions to be perfect. I have found out in these few years that I have lived that conditions will never appear to be perfect. That is there will always be an excuse to defer what could be done today. And the more you procrastinate, the more optimistic you become that tomorrow will present another chance. But remember that today is yesterday’s tomorrow. In other words, if you have an excuse for every “today” then the “tomorrow” you wish for will never come.

What are you waiting for? What do you want to see before you begin taking steps? Know this every day that the day will do what it will do and you have to do what you can do. The scripture says that “He who watches the wind [waiting for all conditions to be perfect] will not sow [seed], and he who looks at the clouds will not reap [a harvest].” Maybe you have been waiting for all conditions to be perfect but I came to encourage you that what you have now is enough to start. Start Today.

Power Thought: Week 19 (15sec read)

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

“…For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak!” (Matthew 26:41, NLT)

Have you ever felt the edge to do something (an activity) but finally gave up when the time was due? or you started but couldn’t finish the process? hush! that’s no good…everyone knows that and I feel terrible when it happens to me.

It happens sometimes for variety of reasons like:

  • Misplaced Priorities
  • Lack of Motivation
  • Indiscipline
  • Lack of Persistence
  • Procrastination
  • Laziness
  • Unnecessary Excuses
  • Etc

This is Week 19. Not to scare you but 2018 will run out soon AND you aren’t going to get another 2018 in your lifetime. Each day has 1440 minutes and if you are going to allow things such as listed above to keep you from doing the main thing, you will waste these precious minutes living someone’s dream, making other people happy, or pampering you body.

Your Spirit wants to work through your 2018’s resolution but the body doesn’t want to be STRETCHED. It’s time to keep your body on check and remember what Jesus said that “We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work.” (John 9:4, NLT). 

This Week has 10,080 minutes. It may seem plenty of time but it flies really Quick. Therefore every little activity toward the main Goal counts. Please let’s get to work.

Tomorrow comes Quick is another resource I recommend you read.

Have a fruitful week.
