Finding time for God

As anyone who reads this blog knows, I have been reading through the Bible this year. It is going really well. This week alone I have read through Habakkuk and Lamentations, finished the pastoral letters and Titus.
This is surprising really. I never expected to get this far but I have. What I thought would be the great let down would be making time in my day for it. I have always, and I mean ever since I became a Christian, found it tough to organise a regular time in my day for reading scripture. This year, the time has come easily. I do it on the bus to work. This has made for an interesting problem, I don't really find it easy on the weekends. Often I have to push myself to have read my passages before I get to church on a Sunday!
This week has been tough as I have not been well, and the kids are not well either. I had a day off yesterday and have felt well below par for most of the week. I have plowed on regardless and am over 300 days into the year.
I am sure I will complete it now. I really am. I know some people say that pride is a sin but on this one thing, I think I will be proud and I know God will also be proud of me and my efforts.
Thank you lord for your continued patience and help this year. Please make me able to continue on to the very end of the year. Amen
