Why wait.........

Have you seen the movie called Bucket List with Jack Nicholson. It is an interesting story of two grown men with terminal illnesses doing the tings they have always wanted to do. There are so many things that I plan on doing, but what if I never get to do them? When I was younger I thought about how it didn't matter to me how long I'd live. Now that I'm a parent I'd like to see my kids grow up. I'd like to see my grand kids. I'd even like to see what my retirement will be like with my wonderful wife. Why when I was a kid did I lived for the moment? I was very sporadic, spontaneous, energetic and unpredictable. I'm sure that my bet friend or my wife could probably add a few more adjectives in that line. In Jeremiah, we get a promise from God about a plan to prosper. We also get A word in Matthew about do not worry about tomorrow. Why should we put off things tomorrow for what we could do today? Why is it that we feel there are things that cannot be completed today or enjoyed today. Why do we want suffer through what we don't enjoy first or we keep it for last? Why do we have to delay our bucket list until we are decrepit and unable to enjoy them? If you can enjoy them now image what a REAL bucket lit could look like. When was the last time you dreamt BIG? I have read Maxwell say that most people only think about twice a year. Make it a goal to start thinking more often, puting the information down on paper writing out the plan on how to accomplish it then DO IT! What have you been dreaming lately?
