halfway point

Today is July 1, the first day of the second half of ’08. Maybe this would be a great time to check in with those New Year’s resolutions. You remember, those promises you made to God and yourself. Those commitments you made to lose weight and get in shape and learn a new language and read your Bible more and … I have the same list. Problem is, it’s not the New Year and our motivation seems to have slipped through our fingers.

Why not revive some of the good intentions? It is not too late to resurrect those ideas. They were pretty good when you came up with them, they are still valid now.

Maybe you made a list. Where is it? Did you create a file? If there is no record, just recreate it now. Maybe you didn’t even create a list in your head. Maybe you don’t even believe in resolutions. Do you believe in goals? If so, set some. You have 6 months to work on these things. A lot of good can happen on half a year.

Let’s make the next 6 better than the last 6.
