A Little Secret...

I love misty late-spring mornings.

Maybe it’s because God hides behind mist when He reveals His glory... Or maybe it’s because on such mornings, everything heavy and oppressive is driven away, and nature sings its sweetest melody. Or maybe it’s because the mist makes things grow...

Whatever the case, I’m really drawn. And never does such a morning pass without awakening in me an extra special desire to grow myself. 

Welcome “100 days of Summer.” 

Not the State Police’s vigorous seatbelt/DWI/speeding enforcement initiative, but just a tad bit like it. They set their summer goals and then get extra serious about their jobs during the busy season, and their efforts pay off in decreased accidents and crime. Now what if Christians set tangible goals for growth and service, and then got extra serious about doing their little part, and praying for the rest? Just for 100 days... Do you think it might pay off?

I’ve got a little secret. It would.

I know, because I (along with some of my nearest and dearest) did “100 days of Spring.” 

So join us if you will... Pray about what God wants you to accomplish this summer, and put it on paper. Then work. Check your progress every day. Pray like you’ve never prayed before, and then share your story with someone...

That was just the preface. I wanted to tell you what I learned this morning... :)

What is about to follow (tomorrow, and the next day, and the next) is a series of posts on my favorite Old Testament book. Since today is day 1, I read chapter 1. Tomorrow, I’ll read chapter 2. Perhaps you’ll read it too, and tell me what strikes you... Even if it is just three words. :) I’ll try to post every day, unless I’m somewhere where neither iPad nor Blackberry have access to the outside world. 

Ok, so here goes... (I love this!)
