Experiment

I had a good time hearing where different people were as far as their staying focussed on God throughout the day - some are trying different methods - singing, meditating on Scripture, journaling, etc.

I am still experimenting on training myself in thinking about and conversing with God throughout the day - my favorite times are in the morning as I get up, read Scripture and walk the dog. That little guy (the dog) gets up awfully early so we get out when it is dark and quiet - just me, Jack the dog, the birds and God.

I also am finding that talking with God throughout the day tends to push me to being more honest with God - more open and honest about what I am feeling and thinking at any given moment. Rather than just thinking about something or worrying about it - I am learning to pray as I think and give it over to God.

I am still no where near where I want to be - but that's what experiments are all about. Learning, growing, seeking new answers and life change. I'll keep you posted.
