We interrupt our silence...

Life has been a little hectic lately, what with ice storms, power outages and so forth. I have a back log of things I want to blog about, but all that will wait for another day.

Today, I want to introduce you to the prayer wheel tool I use to keep myself on track during my quiet time. It's very simple, just a reminder of twelve things or ways to pray every day. I don't know who came up with it—my pastor gave it to me and I use it gratefully. I have a notebook handy for what hits me from my reading and prayer. I also tuck in a piece of scrap paper, and if I get knocked off my concentration by things I need to do that day, I just jot them down and move on. I've been practicing this for nearly two months on a more and more regular basis, and I thoroughly enjoy the effect it's had on my life.

As a bonus, you get all the references I looked up and scribbled into my notebook, plus a peek at my high tech methods. *grin* I hope it helps someone!

I've always heard Tim talk about the prayer wheel but have never seen it. Thanks

Thanks for this Sue.

I have a new Bible reading plan that I really like too. I'll email it to you. I thought about blog posting it but I need permission from the author. It was developed by a prof. at The Master's College nearby.
