Procrastination waits and waits
And never seems to get much done.
She doesn't have much urgency
And simple tasks she seems to shun.
Instead of saying, "It can wait -
I'll deal with it another day",
She should rise and go to work
On each new task without delay.
For "waiting" is a tired game
And misses possibility.
It's better to be prompt and ready
And have accountability.
It's very freeing just to know
That there is nothing "pressing in".
To have a clean slate every day
Is just the best way to begin!
"And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men."
Colossians 3:23 NKJ
