Starting Out

It has been nice to move away from Starbucks and begin to establish a schedule once again. One of the great blessings of this call is that part of my calling is to begin each "work" day in prayer and devotion. I have been slowly making my way through Romans, part of an accountability plan with a friend, and praying through our directory. While I am slow to learn names, I can feel myself growing ever fonder for the people here as I embrace them in my spirit...What I don't quite understand is that even though I find great joy starting each day in the office this way, still I struggle to find the prayer and devotion as part of the start of my day when I don't come into the office. I suppose those prayers by the bishop didn't totally change me. I guess the rumor is true, I am still human filled with an old Adam. So the battle continues.
