Just Might Make It!!

Every January I set out with new goals and ideas that usually don't last. I am not even going to look back to see what I decided to try this past January. I am sure, since I can't even remember them, I have not accomplished them. I know I am not any thinner, which was probably a goal!! BUT!!!! There is one thing I am accomplishing. I started a new Bible reading plan in January and I am still on course 3/4th's of the way through the year. I have never been able to keep up with reading plans and get discouraged and feel like I need a week away to catch up, but for some reason, this one felt do-able and I have loved it. I have waited this long to blog about it because I wanted to see if I would really stick to it. I think I might just make it to the end and actually finish this plan!!!! It is called "Engage Scripture." It was put together by Darrin Patrick, who has been all over the Internet lately due to his new book about Church Planting and his video about manhood. Anyway, I did not know anything about him when I found the plan, I just chose the plan because it looked like it would work for me.

This plan takes you through the Bible in a year. 2 OT readings a day and 1 NT reading a day. It has built-in days off every 3 days, so that if I fall behind I can catch up pretty easily. I downloaded the PDF file and printed it and keep it in my Bible. Here is the link for it: http://journeyon.net/engage/scripture/reading

Click on the "Engage Scripture Reading Program" and then it comes up in a nice chart format.

There are extra things this site will do for you, great explanations of scripture, videos etc. I did not use them, though I may this coming year. I really found the simple reading plan enough for me.

I realize that at this time of the year you are probably not looking for a new plan, but January will be here soon and I may forget to write about this!!
