don't put off till tommarrow what today
Apr. 8th, 2016 12:31 pmDon't put until tommarrow what you can do today! This a quote I have heard many times in my life. I never really gave it a lot of thaught. All it meant to me was get it done today and with out delay. it was recently I found scriptural reference to this:
Proverbs 3 27-28
Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, When it is the power of your hands to do so.
28
Do not say to your neighbor, "Go, and come back, And tommarrow I will give it," When you have it with you.
In other words do what you can when you can and don't delay. it may not feel right, but do it anyway. Don't worry what anyone will say, just do it. your task is to please the Lord in word and deed. others may say don't because of many reasons. maybe because they want to and can't. it has been given you to do. you never know the outcome that will result. don't worry if you consider them an enemy because in doing good you heap coals of fire on their head. always look to Jesus and follow what He wants you to do. as I stated these verses kind of are saying "don't put off till tommarrow what you can do today."
