So, anyone who knows me (which is very few people), knows that I am going through some things right now, but who isn’t? The things that I am going through have caused me to question some aspects of my life, but, ultimately, they have also led me on a quest to have more focus in my life. As a part of the road to a more focused life, I have started doing a daily devotional. I am using Praying for Purpose for Women: A Prayer Experience That Will Change Your Life Forever (Pathway to Purpose) by Katie Brazelton. This is a sixty day discovery devotional. My mom has a copy of this book, but I do not think that she has ever read it. I have looked at it several times and considered borrowing it, but finally broke down and spent a hard earned $4.99 to get a severely discounted, brand new, hard cover copy of my own on Amazon about a month ago.

The thing with a daily devotional is that you are supposed to do one every day. I think you see where I am going here…I cannot remember exactly what day I started, but I am sure that I should be about halfway through the sixty day discovery. But in reality, I am still on day fourteen. I find that I will do one day and end up missing the next. You are not supposed to do two in a day to make up, so I do not. But I feel bad for missing so much.

Quite frankly, some of the days readings have been very moving and thought provoking; however, other days have not been so. I want to stick with it, though. After all I spent my $4.99 plus tax and shipping. Besides, I am still hoping that I come out at least a slightly better person in the end because I stuck with it.

Oh wait, I still need to do today’s devotional…
