Crises

"Great crises produce great men and great deeds of courage"

Some people who are procrastinators say they get more energy and ideas if they wait till the last minute; if they wait until it becomes a crisis. That's their justification for procrastination. Although procrastination is clearly a very bad habit, this experience is real. It is much easier to act when you know that you absolutely have to do something right away.

Ideally, if you have been alert and aware and prepare for things in plenty of time, there won't be many crises in your life. It's probably impossible to eliminate them altogether, though. But when a crisis comes, you need not be so afraid of it. You will probably be able to rise to the occasion. They say that God would never send you a situation that he thought you couldn't handle. Crises may just be a way for God to test, and to show you, just how much you actually can handle. Great crises really do produce great men and great deeds of courage.
