Do Thy Diligence

"Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me."  II Timothy 4:9.  Paul is about to be offered, and his desire is to see Timothy.  The time for Timothy to come was at hand.  There are those actions in our life that require diligence.  We must not procrastinate.  We must be diligent in our salvation.  We have no promise of more time in our life.  We must insure that our souls are secure in Jesus.  We must be diligent in our service unto God.  Today is the opportunity that we have.  We must walk with Him and do His will.  We should be diligent in prayer.  This is our access to the Father.  God desires that we speak to Him making known our thanks and requests.  We must be diligent in the study of God's word.  God has spoken His divine mind unto us.  Let us hear what He is saying unto us.  Let us be diligent in our telling those near to us our love for them.  Our future must have no regret when those whom we love are no longer with us.  May we be ever diligent to serve and contribute to the lives of others.  Compassion and mercy must be a gift that we are always willing to give.  God help us to be diligent with the present moment that Thou has given unto us.
