Topic: Illustrate the meaning of “A Stitch in Time Saves Nine” (without using the actual phrase or literal example). (01/03/08)
Procrastination is the Assignation of your Destination
If you Jesus were to join you for lunch, just you and him; what do you think your conversation would be about? Would he ask you about your bank account? Would he ask you about your job? Would he ask you about your love life? Would he confront you about your addictions? Would he be asking about how far you have gone up the corporate ladder? No, I don’t think he would ask me any of those things. I think he would ask me; How Long? How Long? How long are you going to put your will first? You have a choice my son; free will or Gods will. The longer you put your desires first the more you miss out on experiencing my gifts for you on this side of the grave. I think he would tell me; “it’s time to stop seeking the desires of my flesh (Free Will) and start seeking the desires of his will.
Jesus said; “What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul”? Why is it that man struggles all his life to chase fantasies? Our priorities are out of focus, our thinking is out of shape, all because we don’t seek the Kingdom of God First. What do you think your reward will be for waiting till you are on your deathbed to seek God? The more we put off turning from our wicked ways, the harder it gets to turn from our wicked ways. Our minds become addicted to the addictions, we become headstrong, hard-hearted, and our consciousness is seared. The longer you wait to meet your spiritual soul mate the greater your chances of missing out on your eternal heavenly fate.
How Long, How long will you wait before you repent? Don’t wait any longer to renew your mind, start today. Train your thinking to turn from the thoughts that are tormenting you, train your thinking to reject the desires that oppose Gods plans for you, train your thinking to put God first and all these things that you put first will be added to you or will you be the one that waits to you reach the last breaths of your life before you seek God and come to find out that your procrastination was the assassination of your final destination?

Good job with the topic.

I'm not sure if you meant "Assignation" in your title, or "Assassination" (as you have it in your last sentence). Something you might want to clarify...

These are words that we should all take to heart.

Whew! What a long title!
Good message, but a little hard to read. Break for each new speaker or thought with an extra space/line.
Good job...keep writing.
