Many things clamor for my attention. Frankly, I'm not interested in those things that are for this time only. I know I have only a few short hours before sunset to do what God will enable me to do that's important for all eternity. That's why this pearl of wisdom is so important to me. Yesterday is like a canceled check.
Tomorrow is a promissory note.
Today is like ready cash. We must use this day wisely, for today is the most precious possession that we have. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might. Don't procrastinate in serving the Lord, and don't ever serve Him in a wimpy manner. When you do for the Lord what He asks you to do in a halfhearted way, you're not living up to your potential in Christ.
