The thing about getting behind for me is that it makes it really hard to get started again because I feel like I have to "Catch up" I am behind on the readings, but even more so the blogging. I often do the reading when I cannot do the blog, and mark this or that thinking I'll post later, then I don't and then it snowballs because I don't have time to post all I want to... So I'm just skipping those thoughts with the hope of being able to start fresh again.
Today is October 17th, but I am reading from July 9th... see how easy it is to get behind with this project? Natalie and I have agreed to take a bit longer than the year if needed to complete reading through because she is also behind and it becomes very tempting to just skim it rather than read it in order to catch up. We decided the point was more to learn and absorb than to get through it in the time frame. However, 1 Chronicles so far is a bit of a skimmer anyway with all the family lines...
Having just returned from my anniversary trip in celebration of 25 years, today's proverb was a fun read: "the man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the Lord." Proverbs 18:22
