Contemplative Bible Reading

Proverbs 3:27-28 (New Living Translation)

27 Do not withhold good from those who deserve it
when it’s in your power to help them.
28 If you can help your neighbor now, don’t say,
“Come back tomorrow, and then I’ll help you.”

Years ago, Nike had the ad campaign of “just do it.” They found that ad campaign in these verses.

Do I have the power to help and do good for someone? If yes, do it today.

But wait, if I let them wait, I will … Nope. Sorry. Do it today.

Life is much simpler than I make it out to be. I am smart. I can see nuances. I can … Nope. Sorry. Do it today.

If I sit here and sip my coffee long enough, I can … Nope Sorry. Do it today.
