If awards were handed out for procrastination I'd undoubtedly get the blue ribbon, first place. Usually painting my nails and watching shows on Hulu takes over my times and leaves my homework to be completed the class before its due. Definitely not something I'm proud of, but that's how I roll these days (mostly due to senioritis...).
Today was a little different though...I got a TON done today:
-made pancakes
-did the dishes
-cleaned my room
-blogged
-skyped with Alysa
-did laundry
-did my homework
-color coded my closet
-organized my dresser
Gotta say, it was a very productive day which is unusual for me. And it made me think about something: lent. Typically I don't give things up for lent, I never really saw the purpose and could never come up with something that wasn't just to make me look like a good Christian. How about giving up procrastination? I KNOW that this is gonna be hard seeing as procrastination is practically my profession but think of how much more I can do to glorify the Lord if I manage my time better. That's what lent is all about: removing something from your life and filing the hole that it leaves with Christ. For me that means removing procrastination and using the extra time that gives me with Christ and sharing the joy that I find in Him. What will you give up for Christ this lent season?
