National Procrastination Week: are you putting off your quiet time?

March 6, 2010 by Beth Jones 

This week, March 1-7, is National Procrastination Week.  No, I did not procrastinate until almost the last day to post about it!  I just saw it today!   But it made me think about what I may be procrastinating on lately:

  • Exercising to lose weight
  • Decluttering my drawers and closets
  • Throwing out the junk mail
  • Writing that first chapter of my new ebook
  • Calling that not-so-well-known acquaintance with great expertise that I lack, to ask a huge favor
  • Organizing my pics on my laptop into folders
  • Doing the laundry (again!).

What have you been putting off doing lately?  What priority project do you need to focus on this week?

One thing we don’t want to procrastinate on is our daily quiet time with God.  All of us live very busy, hectic lives, but it’s important that we take at least a few minutes each day to pull away and be with God. Spending time at Jesus’ feet like Mary of Bethany, hearing His word.

You don’t have to spend hours every day to develop a close relationship with God. Just take five minutes right now to be with Him. Let Him tell you how much He loves you. Treasure His word, the Bible.  Song of Solomon 2:10 (ESV) says, “My beloved speaks and says to me: “Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.”
