Procrastinators Daily Devotion

Barbara G. Gelnett

Description

Are you habitually late or stuck in a mire of undone tasks? Do you have too many unfulfilled dreams, or too many starts and not enough satisfying finishes? This book is for you.

— My prayer for those who read this book —

Dear Lord, Only you know the cost paid in our unrealized dreams, forgotten callings, and missed opportunities. I praise you for the grace and freedom you offer all your people who are willing to face their flaws and actively change. May the words for every day in this book usher readers into a life of peace instead of last-minute pressure, fulfillment instead of fear, and creativity in place of condemnation. May victory be in their hands. May there be a tidal wave of purpose completed in your people, that your will be done. In Jesus’ name... Amen.
