It is 2:30 am right now and I am doing something that I have put off so long....Online Driving School. Remember my speeding ticket awhile back? I paid the fine and in return stated that I would complete my driving school by the deadline. When is the deadline?..............MONDAY! I hate it when I procrastinate things and then end up with the stress and headache of doing everything at once. I am unsure why I continue in this cycle over these things. Some things I get done right away and others I drag on and on and on.
Just another brutal reminder that things are best done with proper timing. God has proper timing, in fact he has perfect timing. He is never stressed out and prepared for every situation before it even happens. He will never let me down or come up empty handed at the last minute. That is something I am good at it, but not God. I think Paul says it best in what I call his "tongue-twister" prayer:
Romans 7:18-20
"I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.
For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
For what I do is not the good I want to do;
no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.
Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer
I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it."
