Don’t waste a minute

There are times when you fail and make deals that become a trap to you. There are decisions or words you have said that will hurt a relationship.  When you realize your mistake you have to act quickly. Humble yourself, ask for forgiveness, recognize you didn't pay enough attention, recognize you were wrong, ask for mercy, don't delay. If you keep waiting and wandering not knowing what to do,  time will pass and the deal will be considered sealed. The words you have said will be considered final and they will do its damage.

Dear friend, if you’ve gone into hock with your neighbor
    or locked yourself into a deal with a stranger,
If you’ve impulsively promised the shirt off your back
    and now find yourself shivering out in the cold,
Friend, don’t waste a minute, get yourself out of that mess.
    You’re in that man’s clutches!
    Go, put on a long face; act desperate.
Don’t procrastinate—
    there’s no time to lose.
Run like a deer from the hunter,
    fly like a bird from the trapper!
(Prov.6:1-5 MSG)

Prayer: Thank you Lord for delivering me from traps and dangerous deals. Help me to understand and be prepared to act quickly when I should. Help me to be humble and ask for help or forgiveness when I do something wrong.
