Jesus said to another “Follow me.”
The man replied “Certainly, but excuse me for a couple of days please, I have to make arrangements for my farther’s funeral.”

To many people want to put off till tomorrow, what they could easily get done today.  The above tells us if we truly want to follow Christ NOW is the time.  There is an old saying that says “ tomorrow is the future, Yesterday is the past, today is a gift, which is why we call it the Present.”  God is to be a part of our everyday lives, No running away, No hiding, No excuses.  Put God first above all else in your life.
