I Wish I'd Written This
Every now and again I read something on someone else's blog and think "I wish I'd written that". I just had one of those moments! The blogger in question is a guy called Mark Batterson, and it seems that like me he got into reading the Bible in a year again at the start of this year. So rather than rewrite what he wrote, and sin by trying to claim it for myself, I thought I'd just post a link to it.
I'd especially encourage you to read the last two paragraphs. I quite regularly have people from a number of different churches (including ours) giving me the "I'm not being fed" line. I've never had the courage to say to someone face to face what Mark says in his article, but if I'm honest I've wanted to say what he says on so many occasions as I belive it's the truth. Perhaps I'll be braver from now on :-)
Hope you have a great weekend and to catch you at some point on Sunday.
Simon.
