Lately I've really felt myself neglecting my relationship with Christ. I could make one thousand and one excuses (moving away from the
best church ever was tough for sure), but if I was honest with myself I'm really just not taking the time to focus on the important things. Which is so not okay. And I can feel myself losing my happy. In September I had the BEST TRIP back to San Clemente to shower my favorite soon to be mom and to get some quality best friend time in. During my visit I was reminded of some of my old habits that added so much to my life. And now I finally feel motivated to make some serious changes. Moving to Flagstaff has been such a blessing and I do not regret our decision to move one bit. However, I think part of me is still mourning some of the amazing things that made SC our home. I miss living next door to my person. I miss our church. I miss walking my dogs on the beach trail and lazy days in Laguna. I miss the food; bagels, tacos, and pizza are not the same in Flag. Unfortunately I've been focusing too much on the things I miss about our old home and not enough time or energy on falling in love with new things here. That ends now.
First step is dedicating a small part of everyday to reading my bible and starting a prayer journal. I have never had a prayer journal before. (inspiration below)
Pinterest has been throwing some awesome ones into my feed and i'm super inspired by the idea. For now i'm searching for the perfect journal with not too thin paper and looking for a good bible study to follow along. Anyone have a good bible study that they follow? If so i'm all ears. I'm sure i'll post updates soon!
