WELL I NEVER!
Unfortunately this is how some people go through life
For them the saying "NEVER DO TODAY WHAT CAN BE DONE TOMORROW" is the way they live.
But there is another saying that says "TOMORROW NEVER COMES" and with one thing and another life passes them by without them having done much or making the decisions in life that they should have made.
DON'T BE LIKE THIS with the most important decision of where YOU will spend eternity.
Eternity is a long time,is that's a contradiction.
NO ONE knows what tomorrow may bring, so MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY, ready to meet your maker on His terms.
John chapter 3 verse 16 says FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.
DON'T TAKE TOMORROW FOR GRANTED, THINK ABOUT YOUR FUTURE TODAY

Psalm 22 Psalm 23 Psalm 24
In Psalm 22 we have the Good Shepherd who gave His life, No one took His life. . He laid down His Own life. His life was given Voluntary. It was Vicarious, He died for you and me, and His death is Victorious, the veil is rent and the way is opened up so that all may come in.
In Psalm 23 we have the Great Shepherd
He is the one who gives peace
He is the one who gives us rest
He is the one who feeds us
He is the one who leads us
In Psalm 24 we have the Chief Shepherd
Jesus died as the Good Shepherd, He sose as the great Shepherd, and He will return as the Chief Shepherd and He will Rule with the rod of iron and He will not be coming empty handed but with rewards and many crowns
His rewards will be personal
Well done good and faithful servant.

Psalm 22
1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me,
so far from the words of my groaning?
2 O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
by night, and am not silent.
3 Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;
you are the praise of Israel.
4 In you our fathers put their trust;
they trusted and you delivered them.
5 They cried to you and were saved;
in you they trusted and were not disappointed.
6 But I am a worm and not a man,
scorned by men and despised by the people.
7 All who see me mock me;
they hurl insults, shaking their heads:
8 "He trusts in the LORD;
let the LORD rescue him.
Let him deliver him,
since he delights in him."
9 Yet you brought me out of the womb;
you made me trust in you
even at my mother's breast.
10 From birth I was cast upon you;
from my mother's womb you have been my God.
11 Do not be far from me,
for trouble is near
and there is no one to help.
12 Many bulls surround me;
strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
13 Roaring lions tearing their prey
open their mouths wide against me.
14 I am poured out like water,
and all my bones are out of joint.
My heart has turned to wax;
it has melted away within me.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd,
and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;
you lay me in the dust of death.
16 Dogs have surrounded me;
a band of evil men has encircled me,
they have pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I can count all my bones;
people stare and gloat over me.
18 They divide my garments among them
and cast lots for my clothing.
19 But you, O LORD, be not far off;
O my Strength, come quickly to help me.
20 Deliver my life from the sword,
my precious life from the power of the dogs.
21 Rescue me from the mouth of the lions;
save me from the horns of the wild oxen.
22 I will declare your name to my brothers;
in the congregation I will praise you.
23 You who fear the LORD, praise him!
All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!
Revere him, all you descendants of Israel!
24 For he has not despised or disdained
the suffering of the afflicted one;
he has not hidden his face from him
but has listened to his cry for help.
25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;
before those who fear you will I fulfill my vows.
26 The poor will eat and be satisfied;
they who seek the LORD will praise him-
may your hearts live forever!
27 All the ends of the earth
will remember and turn to the LORD,
and all the families of the nations
will bow down before him,
28 for dominion belongs to the LORD
and he rules over the nations.
29 All the rich of the earth will feast and worship;
all who go down to the dust will kneel before him-
those who cannot keep themselves alive.
30 Posterity will serve him;
future generations will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness
to a people yet unborn-
for he has done it.
