What are you doing later today? What will you be doing tomorrow? How will you use your time and what will you invest it in?
Andy Stanley, author of "The Best Question Ever," talks about a great way for us to framework how we use our time. He talks about "The Cumulative Effect." In other words, we need to invest our time in things that will build upon themselves.
For instance, If you skip one meal, no big deal. But what if you skipped every meal for the past three weeks. Think about how the "Cumulative Effect" after these three weeks. Take another example....Exercise...One workout will not change your body, but working out consistently over a 12 month cycle can create huge results.
Skipping Prayer? Skipping Meditation on Scripture? Not spending time with your family? One day may not be the end of the world, but when one day turns into two, three, four, etc, it makes a huge difference. When you look back on your week, your month, your life, you must be able to identify what it is that you did with your life. When you invest in things that "snowball" and build on each other, you will then find yourself transformed in order to help others transform themselves for the best!
Don't be so busy trying to get things done, that you end up not getting anything done...
