So my daughter is a princess (of anything she wants to be, of course).

So…you might be wondering why I’m posting after another REALLY long absence.

Because I told a really good friend that I would, that’s why!

It doesn’t hurt that he told me about the WordPress for Blackberry application (which I’m using for this post, by the way), either. So here’s to trying to post regularly again!

So I’ve been having a problem lately getting up in the morning.  It’s a typical problem of many people, I’m guessing, but it doesn’t make it any less of a problem for me.  You see, when it is not summertime, I have a little issue with exercise.  And what I mean by “little” is that I don’t get any exercise.

So Sarah and I had been doing fairly well at getting up four or five times a week…for two weeks running…and doing exercise.  And then it dropped to nil.  Part of that can be helped by going to bed earlier (which I’m not helping now by staying up to type this, but…) is just pure ol’ motivation.

…and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the Lord searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts.  If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will reject you forever.” — 1 Chronicles 28:9

So if something as serious as serving Him is supposed to be done with wholehearted devotion — because I want to do it, not because I have to do it – wouldn’t something that I have to do for personal health be much easier if I applied my energy to it?  While it may be a leap for some, this is something that is (now) a no-brainer for me.  Not that it will make the first days any easier, but having a purpose and reasoning always helps.

And besides, those days that I do sleep in will now be all that more special!
