It is better…

It is better to wake up early and go for a run and swim on the beach

than to stay up late wasting unproductive hours on facebook and the internet.

It is better to spend the first part of your day praying and meditating on God’s Word

than to rush into your extremely busy day headfirst.

It is better to have real conversations with people you are with

than to have online chats with people who are not there.

It is better to initiate a conversation with a friend you haven’t spoken to for a while

than to feel hurt that they haven’t spoken to you first.

It is better to confess your shortcomings to a trusted friend

than to struggle with your issues alone.

It is better to let someone know politely that you didn’t like something they gave you

than to pretend you like it just to avoid hurting their feelings.

It is better to get up and try again when you fail

than to stay down because you’re already there.

It is better to enjoy the season of life you are presently in

than to long for things to be the way they were.

It is better to be single

than to be married to someone who does not understand God’s purpose for your life.

It is better to ask a question

than to make an assumption.

It is better to rest when you start to feel the cold coming on

than to keep going until you crash.

It is better to schedule some ‘do nothing’ days

than to be constantly rushing from one activity to the other.

It is better to focus on a few God things

than many good things.

It is better to live your life totally surrendered to God now

than to spend the rest of eternity wishing you did.
