Well, here the beginning of me trying to do my best to have a regular Lenten discipline. I usually haven't had much success in the past with a daily intentional reading of scripture. It usually gets pushed off to the side or even simply forgotten about as either a busy day is ahead of me or slow relaxing day that's meant to be a break from the grind.
It's funny that this journey into Lent starts with a Psalm that declares "O that my ways may be steadfast in keeping your statutes!" I want this to be my prayer. I want this to be how I live my life. But, I know that I fail all too often to this. There is a happiness in keeping the law of the Lord in your heart, but like the psalmist cries, "do not utterly forsake me" when I inevitably mess up.
