So this is it. The finish line is looming. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Its right there…so close!
Frankly I’m ready to be done. Not so much with the disciplines I’ve been participating in – they’ve been good for me – but more with the pressure to make sure I get done with what I said I would do. And the let down I feel when I don’t accomplish it. My wife mentioned that she was glad I hadn’t made this a “religious” thing since I missed a few times here and there. However, I still feel that pressure.
Pressure…
Maybe its not a bad thing.
Maybe its just what I need to help me succeed and press on. Maybe the accountability I’ve created through this blog has pushed me into places I wouldn’t have gone otherwise. Maybe its not a bad thing…
But maybe it is.
Maybe the pressure I feel is based on the fact that I want people to see me in a good light. Maybe I want to how the world how spiritual and disciplined I am and that’s why it bugs me so much when I sleep in or miss a day at the gym. Maybe God is revealing my heart in all of this…
Hey wait. He’s what?
Maybe that’s a good thing after all.
