Oh my! What a list! "I can do all things through Jesus Christ who gives me strength" - Philippians 4:13. There is no school today so I'm using the Fly Lady 15 minutes system today to make full use of My Anti Procrastination Day. 15 minutes on the computer, 15 minutes on a project, 15 minutes back on the computer and so on. Pray for me sisters. I am a lady with a mission - conquer procrastination and develop habits to keep on track. I sense in my spirit that big things are coming our way as a ministry couple, I don't know whether good or seemingly bad(I say seemingly because God is the one who allows things into our lives and if he allows something then it is not really bad just painful and the end is righteousness and a closer walk with Him), so I'm doing all I can to get ready. I am preparing the way of the Lord. I don't want to miss out on anything He wants to do in and through our lives because I am unprepared and have unfinished tasks I've been procrastinating on or I am not able to hear Him because of all the stuff clamoring for my attention. An orderly life leaves room for the Lord to surprise us and we don't have pile ups on top of pile ups. With things in order when life happens there will only be the pile up to deal with not past pile ups below present piles. Ok I may be repeating myself here so it's time to end this post and get off the computer. See ya later.
