Love you all, praying for you
 
When I was young, a lot of kids liked Now And Laters - zingy chewy candies in sixteen flavors.  I don’t know where they came up with the name, perhaps to sell more candy… but in life, Now and Later rarely go together.  It’s usually now or later.  You can do it now, or you can do it later.  But if you don’t do it now, you’re much less likely to do it later.  If you do it later, often it never gets done.  Later usually becomes later on tonight, or I’ll do it tomorrow, or I’ll do it ‘one day.’  That diet – one day, that prayer life, ‘one day,’ that college education, ‘one day.’ That needed skillset, ‘one day.’   There’s another danger with now and laters.  Many people have things for you now.  Things they planned for you, that they need you to do right now.  But that doesn’t mean that’s what God wants you to do now.  God has things He wants you to do now, in this hour…  So you are free to do those things that He has for you later.  That’s why PiVAT is so important, and equally important the understanding of PiVAT Maybe….  Praying that you will review both…  they are life changing.  Many people have their time controlled by other people's wants and desires.  But that’s not what God has for you.  Life is time, once it’s over its over.  Many people spend their time by default, or someone else’s fault.  God has plans for you for now and later.  Plans to prosper you, not to harm you – to give you hope and a future.   God has things for you to do in this hour.  That’s why God says – write in a book all the things I have told you.  The things He has planned for you for today, for now and for later.  That’s where the joy is.  If you do the things He has for you now, you’ll know the joy in following His plan – letting Him lead you.  He said my yoke is easy and my burden is light.  Your plans can only get you what you can come up with…  Other people’s plans for you – are for their benefit not yours.  But God’s plans for you today and this week are for His glory – and your blessing.  There is nothing better than doing what has planned for you now…  So you are free to do what He has planned for you later.  His plans are good, they are for your good, they will prosper you, and enlarge you, they will advance you and bless you.   Troubles come in life, but God’s ways are so much better than what you or others have planned, His plans for you and His ways bring joy, and success, they bring His favor, and they bring fruit.  So your life is fruitful! Not fruitless. Meaningful, not meaningless.  Praying that now and later, you’ll know exactly what God has for you – that you’ll hang out with Him today, doing what He has planned for you right now, and later. 
 
Love you all,
