Procrastination

"When I find it convenient, I will send for you."
- (Acts 24:25, NIV).

When the Apostle Paul was brought before Governor
Felix to be judged for his Christian faith, Paul
may have come close to persuading him to become a
Christian. On one occasion after listening to Paul's
case, Felix trembled and sent Paul away saying he
would speak to him at a more convenient time.

Today is the only day we ever have. Yesterday is gone
forever. Tomorrow never comes. Whatever it is we need
to do today we need to do today. Procrastination
surely is the thief of time. There are many reasons
why we put things off—apathy, fear, anxiety,
uncertainty, habit, indifference, passive resistance,
and/or just plain not-getting-around-to-doing-it.

Whatever the reason, there are some things that are
far too critical to put off until a more convenient
time—especially putting our life right with God.

Even though Felix spoke to Paul on a number of
occasions after saying he would speak to him at a
more convenient time, there is no indication that he
ever accepted the Christian faith.

If you need to put things right with God and/or accept
Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, why not
do that today? As the Bible says, "Behold, now is the
accepted time: behold, now is the day of salvation."
- 2 Corinthians 6:2 (KJV).
