When we make New Years resolutions, we try really hard to keep up with it as far as we can. I usually last a month and then I get back to bad habits and old routines. This past year, I really wanted to read the whole bible, cover to cover, this year. I think i set out this task every year, and I usually fail miserably…. I have read the book of Genesis MANY times :)
This year, it was a little different. There was a bunch of people that I follow on twitter, and in my church community that wanted to take this task on. Good friend and older brother Eddie C. took the initiative and made a spreadsheet on google docs (I LOVE GOOGLE) of our reading tasks for the year. We just check of every time we read. Not only were you helping yourself read through the bible, but you had others could others see your progress, and keep you accountable. Looking through the list, it seems like some fell through the crack and others kept up with the reading.
Due to some family reasons, I won’t be in the states for some of December, and internet connection will be lacking… so updating the document will be difficult. So…I am determined to finish the bible by December 10th! I have 37 days worth of reading left! I think I can totally do it. School is slowing down a lot, and I usually read during my 1.5-2 hour commute to work… so I think its totally doable!
I really hope this works…
