exhortation of the month (AKA: proverbs by nike).

my latest discovery is that it's no good fighting with yourself about legalistic, yet overall beneficial things. i used to fight with myself a lot about getting up and reading my Bible in the morning, and sometimes i wouldn't do it just to spite myself - but then i realized that in the long run, it doesn't really matter how i feel about it on a particular morning, because there is so much good to be gained from doing it consistantly. after about a week, waking up at 6 wasn't even so bad. now it's just something i do, and i can tell a difference. so for all those struggling with habits, i'm sayin' JUST DO IT. (and stop analyzing).
