Procrastination Station Pt. 2

3. Feelings

  1. Why do we want to procrastinate or to not try?

  2. We don’t want to work wholeheartedly – Colossians 3:23-24; Ephesians 6:7

  3. Selfishness says, “I don’t feel like it. So, I don’t have to.” – Jeremiah 17:9

  4. Pride says, “I shouldn’t have to.” – John 13:1-17 “Jesus Washes the Disciples Feet”

  5. Eric Thomas, “Behind your feelings is nothing.”

How do we overcome procrastination?

  1. Be immediate – Matthew 25:16, “He went at once…”

  2. Appreciate time – Psalm 90:12

  3. Discernment – Psalm 32:8; 1 Corinthians 6:12, 10:23 (Just because it’s good doesn’t mean it’s necessary)

  4. Serve – Galatians 2:10, 6:10; Proverbs 21:13; Psalm 82:3-4

Muted TV

So, last week, we were watching a choir, and my uncle was asking why he couldn’t hear anything. Somehow, the TV had been muted, so my cousin said, the TV is muted so turn mute off.

What’s interesting is that we could see what was happening, but couldn’t take part in it because we couldn’t hear. We had the resource, we had the access, we were tuned in and could see it, but we couldn’t get involved. Not until we activated something.

We had the access and the resource, but we hadn’t activated them. And the same thing applies to our lives. Today, we see needs. We know we can meet them. We have access to people who could use our help. We have the resources. But have we activated them?

We’re waiting on something else to happen when all along we have the access and resources in our own hands to get involved and make it work.
