MASSAGE:
One of the bad habits that can not only ruin your today but also you tomorrow is procrastination. The nursery rhymes says: “Tick says the clock, tick, tick, what you have to do, do quick. Anyone who slacks in doing what he or she has to do is lazy and God hates laziness. He will never bless a lazy person.
There are different ways to curb procrastination. First, find out why you find it easy to procrastinate. Do you dislike the chore or are you just lazy? If you dislike any chore, find a way to make it interesting. You could listen to gospel music while you do it and think of an easier way to achieve the task. If you are lazy, you need to break free from that mindset.
Understand that laziness is a sin and lazy people never go far in life. Thereafter, create a strict timetable for yourself. Have a journal where you plan your day from the time that you wake until bedtime and stick to it. Most importantly, ask the Holy Spirit for help. He is ever willing to help you.
PRAYER POINT:
Holy Spirit, please help me to do what I ought to do at the right time.
HYMN: Stand Up, Stand Up For Jesus
