Why am I doing this?

I have found that I am in need of a project. I also have several goals that seem to be nagging me lately. 1. I need to get in shape. Although round is a shape, it's not so much what I am looking for. 2. I need to read the Bible more. It has yet to become a vital foundation to my faith on a consistent basis. 3. I would like to write more. It's something I greatly enjoy, but simply do not make time for it.

So I have decided to take the next 90 days to simultaneously complete the P90X fitness challenge, Read the Bible in 90 Days, and Blog about my entire experience. Viola! This condenses all three goals into a single project.

Day 47

Workout- Legs and Back
Bible Reading- Proverbs 8 - 20:21

I feel like I have just gone through a thousand fortune cookies, without all of the Chinese food goodness. That must mean that I am in the book of Proverbs. It's such an odd book and I just don't know what to do with it. It certainly has good pearls of wisdom, but how am I supposed to apply them? Is this book meant to be read in one sitting or is it better to just pick a few out and ponder them individually? I'm not sure what would be best. What I do know is that I probably only soaked up about 15% of what I was reading. The rest of it flew in one ear and out the other. Anyone have any thoughts on some practical applications for this book, because I am out of ideas.

Maybe I can go get some Chinese food and ponder this. Mmmmm.... Crab Rangoon! That's it, I need to go to First Wok. Who's with me?
