a habit
July 27th, 2010Statistics say it takes 21 days to form a new habit.
Know what that means?
3 weeks into the cleanse, we just formed a new habit! Unlike the new fingernail biting my 4 year old has started, this is a habit I’d like to keep.
WAY TO GO!
Finished up Hosea today and on to the New Testament tomorrow.
Not sure about some of you, but there were some rough days this past week, when The Lion was showing his fierce teeth. Yowzers.
But, I’m hoping you got something out of each one of those days.
I did, and honestly, I was surprised some days what spoke to me.
Couldn’t help but really feel the living, breathing aspect of God’s word this week.
Here’s a few thoughts from Thursday:
”She decked herself with rings and jewelry, and went after her lovers, but me she forgot,” declares the Lord. Hosea 2:13
Not who, but what are your lovers?
Lord, how often is this me, going about MY way, MY comforts, MY desires, seeking my friends first, leaving you behind, or just an afterthought?
I want to live daily with you, as you live daily in me. Let THIS desire be what I pursue tomorrow – You.
Like this one, I’ve been posting a few thoughts about each day’s reading on facebook.
For this last week of the cleanse, I’m going to include them on our Building Blocks facebook page as well, hoping more of you will see them. NOT because I’m awesome, but because YOU ARE.
I’d love to see us encourage one another this last week.
So, if you will, add your thoughts/insights/inspirations as a comment.
Can’t wait to see what God reveals to you this week!
After all, it’s a habit now, and I pray it becomes an increasingly hard one to break.
If you haven’t been doing the cleanse consistently or even started, just jump in with us this week! Click here for the reference, and skip down to page 14 to find this week, starting with Luke 1. It’s a good habit to start!
