What Are You Doing

When I first began this blog, I posted regularly. Almost daily. I haven’t posted anything at all in several weeks, and my “regular posting” seems to be a thing of the past. Since cancer entered our world, all our routines have been tossed, and the only routine is that there isn’t one! I often find myself walking in circles through the house asking myself the question, “Susan, what are you doing?”. 

That question seems a good place to get back to this blog. So I ask you the same question I often ask myself. What are you doing?

If you watch the TV show Wheel of Fortune, you will recognize that question as one of the puzzle categories. Usually the answer is something like reading a book or sitting on the beach or watching a movie.

Today let's consider that question in a little different light.

It's Friday. Sunday's coming. What are you doing to get ready?

I'm not talking about being sure you have turned your clock forward one hour for Daylight Saving Time.  (And really, what time does it actually save??)  I'm not talking about deciding what you're going to wear to church. Or deciding where you'll go for lunch after church.

I'm talking about this: What are you doing to get ready for worship? What are you doing to prepare to meet with God? What are you doing to prepare your heart for Bible study? What are you doing to get ready?

Or are you planning to just show up and see what happens?
