getting my attention

My first attempt to do a blog, I'll see how it works out.  Just wanted to say, I keep stumbling on being disciplined about "continuing the hike" with Jesus; I let Bible study slide and prayer time shorten; which is so ridiculously shortsighted and yielding to temptation of stress, worry, fatigue, and just laziness.  Then an especially stressful day comes, and frantically I search my mind for comforting Bible verses.  God is always faithful, and wants us (me) to grow in maturity and intimacy with Him.  So, after going to exercise class to lessen physical stress, I promise to come home and open the Word of God and spend some quality time with my Lord.
