From 2 Corinthians 9:6:  “The point is this:  the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the one who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.”

Hey you, yes you!

Sitting there alone

Life without a view

 

Lack of efficient action

Reaping fear and doubt

Living without traction

 

Being a loyal member

Procrastinators Club

Ever since November

 

Life’s emotional quicksand

Robbing your life rewards

Time to join a new band

 

Do you really desire?

To find true happiness

Without life’s misfires

 

Seeking God’s advice

He’ll always support you

His Grace pays the price

 

Spending little attention

With overwhelming fears

Can’t relax without tension

 

Take courage, now believe

Jesus conquers the world

Time for your life to achieve

 

Released from gloom

Fleeing this quagmire

Life ready to bloom

 

King’s Solomon’s words implant

Whoever watches the wind

Will never attempt to plant

 

Time to change is now

Adopt new life patterns

Sowing with a new plow

 

Here’s some simple advice

Now follow this amazing tip

Better than throwing dice

 

Do first things—first!

Better sooner, than later

Darkest clouds now burst

 

Each challenge, take it on

Looking fear in the face

Reaping rewards, feeling strong

 

Handling life, forever free

Tearing up my membership

Procrastinator, no longer me

From American writer and lecturer, Dale Carnegie:  “Action breeds confidence and courage.  If you want to conquer fear, do not sit at home and think about it.  Go out and get busy.”
