Acting quickly

This year I want to be very sensitive to God's voice and to the Holy Spirit's prompting.  I know when God is speaking to my heart to do something, whether it is to be still in His presence or do a specific thing for someone, or give in some capacity, or give up something that I want.  That, I guess is my goal this year. ( My resolution so to speak). And I want to act immediately. 

 In times past when I felt like God was prompting me to do something, I would sometimes put it on the back burner and justify in my mind not doing it.  Maybe talking myself into believing that it wasn't God speaking to my heart.  A lot of times God asks for more than I feel I can give.  But usually in the end I give in and see that He did not ask for more than I can do or give.  On the occasions that I fail to obey God, I am the loser.  I have lost the blessing He had for me.  

So this year God is already at work.  I have felt His prompting several times already and I find that it is best to ACT and to act quickly. Then I feel God's immediate peace and joy.  
It's going to be a great year!
