"The hardest thing about blogging is consistency"

So a few weeks ago I decided to motivate myself to keep up with this blog. As those reading my blogs may have realized, I'm not holding up to my goal of 3 blogs every week. Well I've let others suggest to me that 3 might be difficult to do. and their right, I honestly just can't come up with 3 clever things to share with you guys every week. I know I said I'd try for at least 1 good thought and maybe just a couple pictures or songs... but I have realized I just can't do those pictures or songs... I feel like I'm cheating... though I guess thats exactly what I said I'd do so maybe I just need to get over that.

but here's my point. How many of us have goals... plans... dreams... and how many of us pursue those goals and dreams with consistency??? It's so easy to go hard core after what we want... for short periods of time... for moments... but then we stop... we decide it's not worth it, maybe it's unrealistic. But the truth is, nothing is unrealistic. If Jesus could take Enoch to heaven, if Ezekial could see dry bones dancing... Why do we insist in believing things are impossible. You know there's not much said about Enoch in the bible... just that he walked with God... let me make sure you caught that... he WALKED with God... Do you think it was easy??? I doubt it, I know it was a different world back then... but murder existed, and just a few hundred years later (which at that point wasn't even 1 life time...) God was preparing humanity for the destruction of earth because sin had become such a common way of life.  I'm sure Enoch stumbled alot... so I guess it's a good thing he kept God close by.  He didn't run, he didn't jog... he just walked... he paced himself and he took his abilities seriously. With heaven as the goal he did what he could to keep walking towards that goal, and he didn't stop... He just kept walking.

Someone wise once said
"If you can't fly than run, if you can't run than walk, if you can't walk than crawl, But whatever you do you have to keep moving forward."
Martin Luther King Jr.

It doesn't matter how long it takes you too reach your goal or your destination... The thing that matters is that you don't stop... you keep moving forward. No matter how many rocks get in your way, no matter how many obstacles you face. Climb them, move them, go around them, but just keep moving forward and don't ever quit. Who knows, along the way you may discover that your original goal isn't what you want to do anymore... but along the way, you'll probably find a new path to somewhere you never thought of before.
