The extra weight

So recently I have been going down to central to study a lot. sometimes i would go directly after lifegroup. sometimes just stay on central. when I plan my day, I always take the weight of my backpack into account, I wanted to take the least trip back home, but carry the lightest weight on me possible. One thing I realize is that i would think to myself whether today has church or not, if not, I would take the bible out of my backpack. if yes, I put it in, thinking: man I am carrying some extra weight today. However, this thought is so wrong. The bible should never be the extra weight in my backpack. I sometimes find myself in need of my bible but i don't have it with me. Then I am reminded that i took it out, or I planned to not include it in my activities for the day.

This brings up a question that I ask myself: Jean, are you really putting God as your first priority? Or is he just like his words that you put it aside when you think you don't need and pick it up when you need it for some commitment like lifegroup? bringing it for church is not wrong at all. But the problem is whether I am expecting a personal growth with God. And from my actions, I am clearly not.

So Jean, organize yourself, and know where to look at, so you know which direction to go.
