40 Days of Focus - Day 2
Starting out on day 2 of 40 Days of Focus today.
I have some things to learn and confess from yesterday.
- Did my prayer time. I did things a little different yesterday. I wrote down my prayers as I was going along. Helped me to focus a lot more. I actually prayed for 20 minutes instead of 10.
- I wasn’t as loving towards my wife as I should have been. Sometimes when I’m stressed out and/or tired, I don’t act the way I should. Late last night was no exception. I was pretty much a jerk. I need to fix that.
- I ate sort of healthy (and didn’t overeat) until later in the evening. Had a weak moment at Skyline with a friend. Shouldn’t have eaten that 3-Way.
- Haven’t exercised yet this week, but I’m planning on doing that tonight and tomorrow. Been a busy week so far.
- I said “no” to something that would have been really good - but not great. And it was hard to do.
- Didn’t read my Bible. I am really disappointed in myself. I only had to do it for 10 minutes, and I didn’t make it a priority. Pathetic.
So now I’m on to today. I know what I need to work on (pretty much everything), and I’m committed to make it happen.
How about you? Are you making some changes?

I’m not quite as committed as you, but about a week or so ago I made a few changes and so far things have really been going well. I continue to learn about myself and am figuring out some things…such as I need a schedule and a method for just about everything…including prayer time.
i’m interested to see how this goes for you…and inspired to get more serious about it myself.

We will be eating healthy tonight! Maybe you can go run while I’m finishing up dinner. : )
Still behind you 100% and praying for you.
Love you babe!

I’m praying God will blow you away as you study His Word. Those times when His spirit jump off the page help get me through the times when I’m just trying to be disciplined (i.e. Leviticus).
