    Losing the Plot

    Just looking at this blog and realising that I haven’t posted anything bible or prayer related for awhile. The reason for this is that I haven’t been praying or reading the Bible for over a month now I think!

    Shame on me! Here I am banging on about religion and not practising it myself.

    What to do about this situation? As always it’s this tension between work at work and work at home and leasure time. I was trying to pray at night after everything was taken care of but then I would look at the clock and think no I don’t feel like it tonight. At the heart of this issue is that praying and reading is a bit of a chore, I find it hard to tap into the part of it that is rewarding. Yet I do get reward from it, I find it helps me centre my life and reflect effectively. Perhaps I need to be more purposfully mindful of these rewards when I approach prayer instead of being mindful of the time it takes and how I just want to sit in front of the box and drink beer. Alternatively, I could attempt to get up early instead.

    You’ll know if I’ve succeeded when you start seeing posts about prayer and the Bible.

    Update: I relate to this post on emergent kiwi too – trying to find the right balance of simplicity and progression.
