Pattern


Did you know that it takes 30 days of doing the same thing over and over again to become a habit?  If you are trying to eat right, exercise, or change your daily routine, it will take 30 days before it feels like second nature to you.  Most of us barely make it past two weeks.  It’s the same with spending time with the Lord.  Anyone can wake up one Sunday morning and go to church, but can they do it week after week with consistency? 

If you are reading this today, you’ve already made it 14 days of spending daily time with God.  (Christmas is day 29!)  It should come easier to us – wanting to spend time with someone who loves us so dearly, but it doesn’t.  As you start to think of New Year’s resolutions this year, make daily time with God one of them.  And if you make it through this book, you’re already there, you just have to keep it up. 

“I have not departed from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my portion of food.” 
Job 23:12
