so this is what I did...


I suck at starting things and not following through. I know this about myself but I can't always figure out how to overcome it. Remember the spiritual disciplines thing I started a while back and never really completed? Yeah. That thing. I don't think it was realling working for anybody so I've more or less scraped it for this new idea of mine.

I've found a website that actually leads you through a 10 minute prayer everyday. It's run by the Irish Jesuits and I discovered it while reading a book called The Sacred Way by Tony Jones. Here's the link: http://www.sacredspace.ie. I'm thinking this is something I'm gonna try to do everyday and then talk about my experiences with it on this blogspot. I'd like to invite you to participate with me if you're so inclined.

Granted, that's not the only thing I'd like to blather on about on this space. I'd also like to address leadership issues, stuff we deal with at youth, etc., etc. I figure this is as good a place as any to meet and talk about stuff on a regular basis.

So yeah - I hope this becomes something I actually follow through on and don't quit halfway through. I never like to think that my 'good ideas' are half-baked, but I guess sometimes they are. See? I'm not perfect! My trouble is that I'm ridiculously self-aware and can therefore figure out ways to hide my imperfections!
