When there are things that need to be done, we sometimes respond with, "In a minute..." Whether we are just busy or are trying to put off doing something, there are certain things that have to get done. After that "minute", the job still needs to get done!
There are things we need to do in our spiritual lives, too. God has given us His commands and He communicates with us. Sometimes we may hesitate or try to avoid God's call or His commands. When we read God's commands or hear His call, we shouldn't respond with, "In a minute." Instead, we should always try to follow God without delay, knowing that His plan is in our best interests!
When God calls, be prepared to follow instead of saying, "In a minute!"
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for being patient with me. Help me to hear your call and to always follow You. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
