Since my last blog, I went on a mission trip.  I am not bragging because I know many of you have gone on lots of trips and many have made more of an impact than I did.  Likewise, if you have not gone on a trip, I am not judging you.  Until a year ago, I had no desire to go.  This is less about my mission trip but more about “tasting and seeing that the Lord is God”.  God is not asking all of us to go on a trip, or teach a group, or write a blog, or sing a special.  But He is asking each of us to do something!

“Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.” This wise saying, attributed to Benjamin Franklin, is one I have always taken to heart. Given an assignment, I always jumped right in and finished it early.  On the other hand, my entire family prefers Mark Twain’s version which says, “Never put off till tomorrow, what you can do day after tomorrow!”  The emphasis of this proverb is to avoid procrastination. Don’t delay in doing what needs to be done. Do it today! That’s what the Lord expects.
