Daily Reflection

I intended to post once a week, if I was lucky. Instead, this blog (my personal - but not private - journal of musings and reflections) has become a daily task I anticipate eagerly. That's a really good thing, I think.

I had so many thoughts backlogged that it often takes restraint to only post once a day! There were so many topics I wondered about, and wanted to research, but hadn't because of a lack of motivation. Well, now the motivation has found me, and it seems I can't stop. Nor do I want to! I really enjoy writing down topics for further consideration, and then picking the topic that most speaks to me on a given day, and writing a post about it.

This blog has given me a reason (though learning about God is reason enough) to reflect and search my thoughts and feelings, and read the Bible even on days I may not feel like it. And some days I really don't feel like it. I generally want to read my Bible every day, and I am enjoying learning from God's Word much more than I used to, but I still have days where I struggle with simply wanting to watch one of my favorite movies and not think about anything (particularly if I've had a busy day).

We need to commune with God daily. I think we need to read His Word daily too, but I also think that it's okay to miss a day sometimes if you really don't feel the need,. but it's important not to make a habit of it. Though, if your inner voice is telling you to get up off the couch and read your Bible (like mine is as I'm writing this) then you should go do it.
