God had prodded me many times over the last few months to do certain things, but I always found a reason to postpone. This week I decided to act on the proddings.
We have been in our new apartment since April. I knew my neighbour had been recently widowed and that I should invite her in for a coffee. But I procrastinated. I determined I was too busy. The sermon that I heard on Sunday goaded me into action. This past Tuesday we got to know our neighbour.
She shared her life story with us. When she left she was all smiles with one of my books tucked under her arm. And I felt truly blessed. Then there were people to phone and others to invite in for a meal. I followed these promptings too.
Amazingly I have still been able to get much done in spite of taking time out for others.
