The story...
Twenty four has been my favorite number for as long as I can remember. The number feels even, comfortable, and strangely offered an optimistic spin for that year. The Ford Motor Company built our new Ford Maverick pickup truck during the last week of January and I planned to Uber drive that spring. While Uber driving, I hoped to meet, serve, and care for people as I helped them reach their destinations. Yes, I planned to do my part toward making 2024 a good-to-great year.
My new years resolution was to pray, followed by meditation, for at least ten minutes per day for 100 consecutive days. Why? A good friend did something similar, I had the power to make the change happen, and the life change seems to offer only upsides.
Did I track my progress? Yes, I wish that I didn't need to record actualities but my old habits are of a stubborn sort. I willed to practice and sustain this good-living habit. In reality, my prayer and meditation life drifted to a more normal state that fit me better. I repeatably learn that I do not know what's best for the future me. Often, I'm surprised at what the good life looks like on me.
The only church in town will share about God's promises for a relationship with Him that trusts in His provision. Prayer and quietly listening is part of that relationship.
Happy new year friends!
Just for today...
