Ever since reading Kate’s article, I’ve been convicted to try to find a way to put God first in my day. I’ve always struggled with making a proper prayer time and, even when I do, concentrating on it. And these days I’m spending more and more of any given day in front of the computer which is full of delightful and delectable distractions. Yet from there, I found my answer.

Hiding among the bookmarks on my homepage, I remembered that I’d bookmarked the daily Scripture readings for Mass. And with good reason. I’ve always enjoyed reading them. Whether aloud as a lector, at home in the quiet or once I attended a day long workshop done by Jeff Cavins where he presented a time line of the entire Bible and the faithful covenant God keeps with his people through it all. It’s where my heart is stirred. Go where you are led, eh?

So, my resolution is to put that bookmark to good use and go through the readings prayerfully when I sit down at the computer each day. There are a plethora of other things to poke at – news, the guild, facebook, twitter, email, friend’s blogs and the list goes on forever – but I make the readings one of the first things that I do so that I have his words in my heart while I do all the others.
