What If I Get Behind? (2 of 2)

Read the first part of this post here.

Here's what to do if you get behind:

Relax.

Start again today. The longer you let it go, the more difficult it will be to get back on track.

Find TODAY'S reading, and start there, making a renewed commitment to stay with it every day. (Remember, reading every day is more important than necessarily finishing the Bible in 365 days. Also, by reading the current day's passage, you can more effectively engage with your friends at 365 Forum.)

When you have a little extra time, go back and read the days you missed.

I'm hoping that our joint accountability will help each of us stay on track. We can encourage one another to keep reading... even those days when the passage isn't action movie material. In case you didn't know, God didn't part the Red Sea on every page, and David only fought Goliath once. But you'll be amazed at the richness of God's Word even on the days where no one gets fed to the lions and no giants are slain.
