Break the Snooze Habit

But make sure that you don’t get so absorbed and exhausted in taking care of all your day-by-day obligations that you lose track of the time and doze off, oblivious to God. The night is about over, dawn is about to break. Be up and awake to what God is doing! God is putting the finishing touches on the salvation work he began when we first believed. We can’t afford to waste a minute, must not squander these precious daylight hours in frivolity and indulgence, in sleeping around and dissipation, in bickering and grabbing everything in sight. Get out of bed and get dressed! Don’t loiter and linger, waiting until the very last minute. Dress yourselves in Christ, and be up and about! Romans 13:11-14

• The most overused, under-defined, continuously altered word in our dictionary:  LOVE
• To walk in love is to prefer what God prefers.
• If we prefer what the world prefers, the love of the Father is not in us.
• Agape love is actively doing what God prefers with Him.
• Love is a choice, not a feeling.
• When I hit snooze, I’m not adhering to the standard that I placed MYSELF under. I’m exchanging what I want most for what I want now.
• Lord, where in our lives are we trading what we want most for what we want now?
• Are we up and awake to what God is doing?  God has a call and a purpose. We can’t get so distracted that we give up what we want most for what we want now.
• We don't want to miss God's appointments and divine will and purpose for our lives.  We need a wake up call!
