Reflection.

One thing I never do is preach. I like to speak my peace, but preach I do not.
Today, on the other hand, I have decided to....mmmm....reflect on my pastor's Sunday sermon.
It was so good and it's actually really simply.
We are a people who put more weight on this...

good 'ol fortune cookie





And this....






good 'ol horoscope





When we should be relying on this...





El Bible.


It really made me think.
How many times have you taken a fortune cookie, which is so generic in message, and thought this was for me!  
How many times have you read a horoscope and said, that so fits my life right now!
I admit it...I've done it. And I was so wrong.
All those times I put so much weight in something so passing, when all the while my Bible was right there waiting for me, chock full of knowledge and wisdom to supply me with.
I definitely need to get into the word more.
Here's something I believe I will challenge myself to do and for you wonderful, lovely people to do: 
Read 5 Psalms + 1 Proverb per day and you'll finish the entire book of Psalms and Proverbs in one month. 
That sounds reasonable, right?!!
