Tomorrow

"Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth."  Proverbs 27:1

All too often we go around saying what we'll do tomorrow, or what we don't "feel" like doing today, it can wait until tomorrow. Well, what if tomorrow never comes? What if tragedy strikes your family and you had put off telling someone you love them? What if you are killed in a horrible car wreck tonight and you'd just put off salvation? THEN WHAT?

We all tend to put off some things, even small stuff. It can affect others, as well as ourselves. You might not get a "Mom of the Year" award if you feed your child ice cream for breakfast, but what if you lost your child that afternoon - would you regret not doing it? (Don't get me wrong, I don't mean every day! ;)  Just what if you put off trusting in Jesus today - will you have that chance tomorrow? What about your neighbor? What if God burdens your heart to share the gospel with a stranger and you put it off... they might not have a tomorrow.
