Today.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 "Whatsoever thy hand fineth to do, do it with thy might."
We should not be comtent with just thinking of things we can do for the Lord in our heart, and talking about them. But we must carry out "whatsoever our hand fineth to do. Do not wait for large opportunities, or for a different kind of work, but do just the things we find to do day by day. We have no other time to live but now. The past is gone, the future has not arrived, we never will have any time but the present. Do not wait until you think you are mature enough before you attempt to serve God. No man ever served God by doing things tomorrow. If we honor Christ and our blessed it is by the things we do today. Whatever you do for him throw your whole soul into it, do not give Christ a little but serve him with your whole heart, soul, and strength. But where do we find the might, it is not in our self for we are perfect weakness. Our might lies in the Lord. So let us seek his help; let us proceed with prayer and faith, and when we have done what our "hand findeth to do" let us wait upon the Lord for his blessing. Than what we do will be done well, and will not fail in its effect.
