Dr. Mark Rutland, former President of Southeastern University (my Alma mater) stated the following regarding the subject of "diligence".
* Diligence means constancy. Temporary obedience is disobedience.
* Diligence is instant. Delayed obedience is disobedience.
* Diligence is exactitude. Partial obedience is disobedience.
* Diligence is observant care. Careless obedience is disobedience.
Diligence is a true character shaping virtue to do things now. Procrastination is a sin and a sign of spiritual weakness. It seems that we all know someone who has mastered the art of procrastination. When God asks us to do something for him, we must do it now and do it exactly as He instructs us. An individual without diligence will soon prove himself to be unfit and useless. Diligence is an absolutely essential ingredient for a leader to possess. Diligence is a key to prosperous and successful ministry. If this is an area that needs improvement take heart God wants you to become a finisher!
