Well I'm really frustrated with myself. I can't seem to read the bible or even just get into it! It's like I want to but then I get easily distracted. I really don't know what to do.

In this book that I am reading now, the author says to write out your prayers. He says to make a prayer notebook. Using a 3 ring binder. Get a pack of lined paper and a pack of tabs. Label six tabs Monday-Saturday. And finally label for Sunday, but use that one for when you go to church and you want to write down some verses or things you've learned at church that day. One the monday thru saturday sections, choose what you want to write about. Example, monday-family (use one page for each member) tuesday-finances, wednesday-illness, and so on... The good thing about this is, you can keep track or your prayers and God's answers to these prayers. You can also read parts of the bible and write down sections you want to meditate on.And note what you feel about what you have read. He said that by doing this, it makes you feel more satisfied with ur prayer life and you will find it more rewarding

I've actually been writing this week! I took out my huge journal and just vented. I'll try to do that prayer notebook and section it off. That sounds like a very good idea! I have also been reading the bible more lately. :-) I started reading Matthew a couple of days ago and I'm on Chapter 8. The Beatitudes are tough to follow lol But thanks for the idea of a prayer notebook! Thanks also for praying :-)
