This area is a giant in my life.

In our Life Management class this morning we had a great discussion about time management, planning and schedule. As we were discussing this topic I couldn't help but think about some things I've seen a lot lately. We live in a culture that frequently hates structure, planning and governing your personal life. We live in a culture where constantly winging things is acceptable, lack of organization and planning is the norm, and mediocrity is satisfactory. I love it when Christians don't want to become conformed to the culture (Romans 12:1-2). When they take steps to rise above mediocrity and become a man or woman of excellence, the Bible promises us in Proverbs 22:29, "...that they will stand before kings; he will not stand before unknown men." I know that helping HITC students to plan and become excellent stewards of their time will bring good fruit that will remain! Have you thought about what your day needs to look like today? Or what the next seven days should look like? Today is the day to step up and overcome some of these things that have held you back when it comes to your time. Too many people are sitting on the bench of life because of this area and today is the day that God wants you to get in the game! Proverbs 21:5 promises us that "The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty..." Are you going to let lack of structure, planning and organization chain you down any longer? Today is your day to break free!
