How you feel about it is how you show up
There's more truth to this than I like. Particularly this week.
Another week of plans compromised by the actual rollout. So you may preach to yourself, prompted by the following, which stood out to me at one point or another lately. Or not.
No particular order.
The matter is quite simple. The Bible is very easy to understand. But we Christians are a bunch of scheming swindlers. We pretend to be unable to understand it because we know very well that the minute we understand, we are obligated to act accordingly. Soren Kierkegaard
Little children, let’s not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth. We will know by this that we are of the truth, and will set our heart at ease before Him, that if our heart condemns us, that God is greater than our heart, and He knows all things. 1 John 3:18-20 [emphasis mine]
God fills only what you offer.
How you feel about it is how you show up.
Don’t underestimate what God is doing in your season of waiting.
Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin. Zechariah 4:10 (NLT)
Toward the promise,

Through the Bible in a Year Reading Plan and Challenge
It’s check in time again. How’s progress? Does it help that you’re nearly 5/6 of the way through? I know we have some heavy prophetic books to plow through yet, but we’re really cooking through the epistles, aren’t we?
Well, ya’ll are. I’ve just started Isaiah and Galatians, just to let you know how far behind I am .
But keep on going! You’re so close! If you’re staying with the challenge, let me know.
