What good is it for a man to have a bookshelf filled with books he hasn’t yet read? What good is it for a man to read those books yet never absorb the knowledge held within them? What good is it for a man to have great knowledge but keep it locked up inside himself?
This isn’t the first time I’ve become self aware of my distractions and I’m sure it won’t be the last. However for the moment I’m going to try to break free of my laziness and do something of worth for the next few days- read. I have a stack of books on my bookshelf, some I’ve read, some I haven’t…and a few I have no intention of. In any case, I’m setting new goals for myself so that I might actually read some of those books. On the list: Mere Christianity, Now Discover Your Strengths, How to Give Away Your Faith, and finish Searching For God Knows What
This isn’t of course all about books, it goes farther than that. It’s about me doing what I say I’m going to do and putting action to my words. With that said, I think reading is a good start.
