Checking in on the 30 Days Challenge


We are at the half way mark of our 30 Days Challenge.

How has your time with the Lord been?  

It is not easy when we first start out.  We may find our thoughts wandering off to our daily to-do list or the kids' needs.  We may find ourselves dozing off in the midst of bible reading or praying...  Or we may find ourselves just reading without understanding... or just going through the routine to get it out of the way to ease our guilty conscience.  

It may be a struggle... some of us took years before we managed to have a consistent time with the Lord.... So don't give up after a few days or weeks.  

Like a baby learning to walk, we take our first faltering steps... we will stumble and fall... and like a baby, we pick ourselves up and try again and try again.  With practice, the baby's legs get stronger, the feet surer and the steps more confident...  and slowly we will be running with the Lord and you will find the time with the Lord getting sweeter and sweeter each day. 

So don't give up.  Hang in there!  :)
