If Not Now, Then When?
Are you a last-minute kind of person? Are you one of those people who think they work best under pressure?
If so, then it’s possible that you’ve fallen for the great procrastination myth. The myth says that procrastination is a relatively harmless habit and that it can even be helpful. That’s what procrastinators tell themselves to mask their pain.
So, I’m sorry to bust your bubble, but a study published some years ago demonstrated that procrastinators produced work of lower quality and suffered higher levels of stress and illness in the process.
In the Bible, King Agrippa said to Paul,
You almost persuade me to become a Christian (Acts 26:28, NKJV.)
With your commitment to Jesus, “almost” is not good enough.
As Martin Luther said,
“How soon ‘not now’ becomes ‘never’.”
Perhaps it’s time to take a long hard look at yourself and where you stand in the most critical decisions of life and eternity.
Remember: If not now, when?
