I have been prompted by a friend to reflect on what I struggle with. The Christian walk is hard sometimes with many hard paths, sometimes like a safari. The bumps just add to the road and while we know our starting place and our ending place (heaven), the path changes on the way. (This was stolen from a friend earlier today).
In my life I have not been making the time I should be for God. If He really is the most important thing in my life then I need to put Him first. Daily time with Him in prayer and bible study is crucial and if we don't have it we can go spiritually dry. I know that this summer will be a harder time as I will be removed from the fellowship of my friends and the Christians I know now. I pray that I will be able to find a few Christians at camp this summer and also to make it to church (no weekends exist at camp). But I will also be using my free time for personal bible study, prayer, and vegging out with God. This way my mind stays focused on Him and I can get through my job and get closer to Him. I need a break from the way life is currently going and I'm very glad for the upcoming transition and time to restart my habits. Plus I'm going kosher and attending Jewish services which could (possibly) help me connect more with Him as I experience the Jewish way of life, without going wholeheartedly into it. I know and am thankful that Jesus came to save me from my sins and to abolish the law.
