Monday morning prayer was canceled this week because the Veritas staff was all out of town. Happily, this meant extra sleep. Sadly, this meant no meeting with other believers to lift each other up to start the week. However, I decided to use the bus ride to class to have a little "Martin's Monday Morning Prayer". This was a rousing success, with a 100% turnout rate--and we listened to the Lord of the Rings soundtrack to add to the mood. After praying for the entire 20-minute bus ride, I went ahead and planned on continuing that, and just giving the bus ride as time to chat with the Father.
I spent this morning's bus ride in prayer, and continued on my way into the IMU (to pick up the Des Moines Register, even though I haven't actually read it in about 2 weeks). Then I had another idea. I don't often read my Bible--and by that, I mean I haven't read in about 2 weeks as well--and I've got another bus ride ahead of me where I get nothing accomplished. Why not read it then?
So that's the plan as it stands now. Bus ride to school: prayer time. Bus ride home from school: Bible time. I'm not sure what to do about Saturday and Sunday, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I'm also not sure how long I'll follow through on what I'm saying, so we'll have to wait and see.
