| | Slowly, I have been reading through the book "Disciplines for the Inner Life" by Bob and Michael Benson. It has been a great book to work through as it guides me each day into scripture and reflection on how to grow closer and closer to the heart of God. Aside from Ozzie Chambers, this book has been one of few books to really challenge my mind and heart toward intimacy with Jesus and the life that comes of that intimacy.
Each week brings a new topic or characteristic for me to enter into. Last week I fell behind. I admittedly got lazy and failed to come to scripture in order to see what God may have had for me to see and learn. I further admit it may have had more to do with the topic of the week: humility.
My head and my heart seemingly did not want to read about, learn about, much less be challenged to humility.
So, stubbornly, since I had already fallen behind on the week, I just flew through the remainder of last week's readings so I could just move on to this week's topic: obedience.
I will just let you rest in the humor of that little jest of God's on my behalf.
