It's good to be back...

It seems like it's been a long time since I've added to the Blog. I hit a place where I was overwhelmed and tired all the time. It was easier to lose myself in computer games or Facebook or TV than to keep up with the daily readings. As a result, I missed most of the Gospel of Mark. This morning I woke up early to work on some other things and had time before getting ready for work so decided to read today's Scripture. I think its significant that today's reading starts with Luke 1 and is about Zechariah's disbelief at Gabriel's news. I realized that I do that every day with the choices I make. Any time I chose to believe the enemy's lies over God's truth I'm no different that Zechariah. And each time I choose to play a game or veg out over reading the Bible I'm making it easier for the enemy to lie to me. In fact, if it weren't for the Blog and the accountability it brings, it would be extremely easy for me to not continue this journey through the New Testament. I'm grateful for that accountability.
