I’m a bit listless today, really tired and not sure why. I took time to rest this weekend too. I guess I need a bit more? I wonder what is significant in dreary days like today? I’m working with the focus of quittin’ time, forcing myself to the gym today, and really looking forward to an early bed time. It’s my day’s goal to be in bed with a post up by 9:30 tonight.
I’m thinking I should shift my focus find a way to make something about today stand out. Did Jesus ever waste a day? Or are the days like today maintenance days where we are a bit run down and just need to get some rest? There’s lots’ coming this week, it’s the week of Wave Conference. We will be in church directly after work for the rest of the week after tomorrow. But the week will surely end with my life unfolding a bit more, something will have shifted in the perspective of life, and I will have grasped a greater vision of the Father’s heart. I’m encouraged and excited for it to happen. Today though, I can’t wait to get in sweats and crawl into bed and it feels like a wasted day.
Maybe, putting one foot in front of the other, pushing through wanting to quit for the day, and doing the right things are the significant part of the day? I just want to quit today and start again tomorrow but if I quit today it may affect tomorrow and that’s not my goal. So maybe when there are dreary unfocused days the lesson is in the consistency of your character. I’m going to the gym because today is the only day I can go all week, I’m going to pray and spend time with God because no matter my day I need fellowship with him, and then I am going to go to bed and thank god for the day and that the end of things are better than the beginning. Maybe those little truths in my character are where the power in the day comes from. It’s not a bad day or a wasted day it’s just a consistent day and consistency changes things powerfully. You look up from consistent one day, and things are just different.
