Ok, I'm just gonna be honest and ramble for a minute here. On Saturday, this wasn't my priority at all. At the time I didn't feel like that was a problem. My friend Anne was in town. We spent the morning talking and catching up. We went to lunch and came back to watch the Virginia Tech game. Then we went to Big Spring Jam. It was all wonderful, a really great day. In theory, I read the scripture while watching football before we went to lunch. I thought I'd read it, go to lunch and the do my journal before the VT game started. Never even finished reading it. And of course didn't really take in what I read cause I was watching football while I was reading. And never even thought about it again after we walked out the door for lunch. Yeah, it seems ridiculous now. At the time it felt like it was ok that this wasn't a top priority. I think it should have been. I have proof that the reading and journaling we've been doing has been a great blessing. Leave it to me to decide that something which has been a great blessing is not a priority. Oh, and I think part of this scripture was about keeping our priorities straight. Ok, anyway, it should have been a priority. :-)
Dear Lord, thank you for the way that you have blessed this Bible study. I'm sorry for tossing it aside so easily. And sorry for even considering that I could read my Bible while watching football. Dear Lord, I want my time with you, my time studying your word to be a priority every day. Please help me see when I'm letting my priorities get out of whack. Thank you Lord. Amen.
