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 49

Workout- Rest Day
Bible Reading- Ecclesiastes 3 - Songs of Solomon 8

Oh glorious rest day. You were everything that I had hoped that you would be. That two extra hours of sleep in the morning make a huge difference in the way that I feel. If only I could sleep in every day.

So it has been a really long time since I have read the Songs of Solomon. I always knew that they were a little out there, but parts of it are down right scandalous! It's really quite beautiful as it is going back and forth between a man and a woman who are very in love, but some of the things that are say will make you blush a little bit if you are not ready for it.

Tomorrow I start Isaiah and I am not looking forward to it. The last time that I tried to read through that book I had a really tough time. If I remember correctly it is a lot of prophesy in it and without the proper research, this all goes way over my head. Oh well, here's to hoping that I get a lot more out of it this time.

    LOL. I love this blog. I have to tell you in all honesty and with much love that you neither inspire me to do P90X or read the bible...at least not the old testament. I am looking forward to your new testament analysis. :-)
