Surviving Week 3 (Read with Me)
I warned you at the beginning of this journey that there would be weeks I would need your encouragement. This is one of those weeks.
I just don’t feel like reading. Let me clarify: I don’t feel like reading my Bible. I want to read, but … not that. And I feel TERRIBLE admitting this because there is absolutely no reason for it! When I have time to read, I simply grab something else. I even keep my Bible on top to make sure I grab it first, but this week I’ve performed impressive acrobatics to get around it.
Maybe I’m bored. Maybe I’m more ADD this week than usual. Maybe some dark forces are working overtime to keep me from knowing God better.
Or maybe I’m just rebellious.
My grace days are gone. Tell me I can do this. Tell me I must do this.
So, how are YOU doing?
Special Note: Next week will be our last “Howya-doin” for January. It will mark us finished 1/12 of our objective. Woo-hoo! If you have a blog, please post something that day about what you’ve been learning. Write about a truth revealed in new light or a character you had previous overlooked, but now find fascinating. Write about the discipline of following a schedule or why you like the schedule you’re using. Write anything that relates to our journey and link up here. We can rejoice together over our progress!
