Dig In

Been a little slow and lacking on the blog posts lately. Might be because I'm diggin Twitter (my feed is on the side of this page) or maybe it's something else. One thing I do know is that I've really been enjoying digging in to God's Word lately.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a bit of a procrastinator and that's kept me from working far enough ahead to make everybody (staff, myself, family) happy. I'm about two weeks out on my messages now and that gives me a lot of time to think, dwell, meditate on various portions of God's word. I think about what I read on my own time in the morning, I think about what I'm studying for this series and for the next series, and I think about what others are sharing from their God times. That's a lot of Scripture rolling through my mind. But it's like a Bible bath, and it's refreshing.

I love that my 4 year old gets up, grabs her "princess" bible, crawls in my lap and "reads" with me. I love that my 11 and 9 year old share what they've been reading and what they though about it. I love that we work on memorizing Scripture as a family at meal time - new verses every week. I love that when my two year old (just turned two on Friday!) prays, I can't understand a word, but I know God hears every one.

I can't understand people who are bored with life. I guess that happens when you don't dig in to God's word and allow Him to stir a few things up, clean a few things off and see a few things differently. Now stop reading this and go dig in. You can click right here and get started.
