No Excuses....Just Do It!


Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor.Proverbs 12:24

Is there something you are putting off doing you know you need to? Exercise, quiet time, breaking bad habits, calling your parents, stopping the gossip habit, getting a better job, getting away from wrong influences? Excuses are way too easy and convenient. You have to make up your mind to do something and do it. Period.

What do you need to get going on? A chore you have been dreading like cleaning the attic? Perhaps writing thank you notes for gifts? Getting outside for exercise daily? Calling a friend you haven't spoken to in a while? Forgiving someone? Scheduling time alone daily with God? Maybe not talking judgmentally of others?

Today make this the day of no more excuses. You know there are things tugging at your heart and now is the time to change direction and purpose to stop the excuses and make a plan. What do you say? Ready, set, go!

PRAYER: Lord I know I have made excuses when it comes to starting a project or getting healthy. Help me stop that now and get motivated to make positive changes. In Jesus' name. Amen.
