It’s Tuesday morning.
You’re sitting in your driveway, engine running, hand on the gearshift.
You know exactly where you need to go.
You’ve run the play in your head a hundred times.
And you still haven’t moved.
In football, they call that living in the huddle.
The play is drawn up.
The clock is running. But the snap never comes.
The snap is the moment strategy becomes action.
Before it, you have the perfect play drawn up in your mind.
After it, you have reality, and there’s no going back.
When Jesus called the fishermen, Matthew tells us they “immediately left their nets and followed him.”
Not after one more season.
Not when the conditions were right.
The snap happened, and they moved.
You already know what your snap is.
You’ve known for a while.
That awareness isn’t a burden.
That’s the play already in motion.
Here’s your focus for the week:
Name the snap: Write down the one move you’ve been delaying. The call, the project, the conversation. One thing, not five. Name it out loud.
Move within the hour: Do the first small part of it today, not tomorrow, not when conditions are perfect. The first step doesn’t have to be big. It just has to happen.
Stop living in the huddle: Stop living in the huddle. Name the excuse, the ‘not yet,’ the ‘not ready,’ the ‘not the right time’. Is it true, or just comfortable? God put the play in motion the day you were born.”
Anchor your week in this truth: “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” — Ephesians 2:10
The field is open. The play is live.
Take the snap.
You were made for this exact moment.
