It's been a pretty good day at work so far. It's been busy, but not too much. Considering it's Thursday, our busiest workday with very little exception, it's actually kind of light.
I've been thinking more and more about how it seems that lately, I've had few opportunities for fellowship. Ever since I was hired here, I haven't been able to attend a regular Bible study. It will be three months on May 10 that I've been working here, and longer since I've attended a study. I'll admit that my attendance got to be rather lax by the end, but not having it has made me realize just how badly I need it.
Lately, my single greatest fellowship opportunity has been church on Sundays, and I'm usually able to attend on a regular basis. It seems like I always end up hearing a message that I needed to hear, even if I didn't realize I needed to hear it at first. God is always good to me in leading me to fellowship, but lately it just seems like those opportunities have been few and far between.
One of the most valuable things about fellowship is the accountability to others. I've been lacking in this, by my own admission. Today, I asked a friend of mine if he would remind me once a day to read through At The Throne of Grace by John MacArthur. I've been meaning to read it for some time, but I've admittedly packed the discipline to do so. If I make myself accountable to someone in this, I hope that I will begin to cultivate the discipline I need.
