Today was a busy, hectic, but good and productive day. I like days like that. :) I'm looking forward to tonight, nothing special. Going to the store and being more productive. But productivity makes me happy.
It's 51 days into my give God a year. I'm not sure how I'm doing. I'm past the initial "going for it" phase already. But I'm not giving up. It's more like "settling in".
To recap, I'm trying to blog (every day"ish") and do my food journal (every day"ish"). I'm trying to be healthier physically, spiritually, and mentally. What that means for me is taking more time to eat right and spending more time in God's word.
Today I read in Hebrews. Hebrews 5 says 11 There is much more we would like to say about this, but it is difficult to explain, especially since you are spiritually dull and don’t seem to listen. 12 You have been believers so long now that you ought to be teaching others. Instead, you need someone to teach you again the basic things about God’s word.[c] You are like babies who need milk and cannot eat solid food. 13 For someone who lives on milk is still an infant and doesn’t know how to do what is right.14 Solid food is for those who are mature, who through training have the skill to recognize the difference between right and wrong.

I don't know if I ever have a "going for it" stage. Sticking with something beyond that is admirable.
I reference that passage in Hebrews quite a bit. It's noteworthy that what is milk (which is detailed in the next chapter) is all important stuff. It's just stuff that they shouldn't have to be taught again.
What the author of Hebrews had been writing about was the priesthood of Christ, and specifically his position in the order of Melchizedek, but the audience was not ready for such a deep topic. It is a difficult topic to understand, for certain.
