In the next three weeks I would be discussing the Thief "Procrastination".
Procrastination is postponing what you are supposed to do now to a future date and it has pulled down many economic giants and killed many great dreams. “How time flies”. And as if to buttress this, one of the greatest thinkers in history once advised, “know the true value of time, snatch, seize and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness, no delay, no procrastination and never put off till tomorrow what you can do today”.
The rich man in Luke 12:16-21 was chained by the 'demon' called 'Procrastination'. See what he said in vs 19 - "And I will say to my soul, soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; .... He was so sure of many years! Like many people also have many weeks, many days, many hours and many seconds, in their dictionary. They postponed everything to moro or future. But God told the rich man in vs. 20 "Thou fool, this nite thy soul shall be required of thee.
Look, God is particular about this month, this week, this day, this hour and this second not tomorrow! Hear Charles Kingsley "Every duty which is bidden to wait, returns with seven fresh duties at its back." Close with Jimmy Lyons "Tomorrow is the only day in the year that appeals to a lazy man." Don't be that man! Don't wait! Always do it now by force.
Pr 27:1 says: "Boast not thyself of moro; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth."
