Inconsistency

Well, if you've been following my blog, you will have noticed that I am not very consistent, to say the very least. It is that way in most areas of my life; always has been. I have spurts of focus and dedication, durring which time, I attempt to acomplish enough to carry me through until my next spurt of vision. This is the manner in which I aproach housework, gardening, reading, exercising, all hobbies and now blogging. As you can imagine, some areas of my life would really be more successful if I were more consistent. Take gardening for example, once the seeds are planted, well, I'm about worn out for a while. When the weeds are getting to be the dominant presence in the rows, I become determined once again to be a good gardener and I attack them with a vengence. However, upon viewing a flourishing garden of growing vegetables, I relax yet again, only to repeat the cycle a few weeks later! Housekeeping, similar story; though I have been amazing myself since our house has been up for sale. We aren't even going to talk about exercise at this time.
I guess it all comes down to priorities for me. I place high value in time spent with God and my family; should be in that order, but that isn't always the case. I also feel that it is important to spend time with friends and peers, developing relationships that encourage and uplift myself and others through the Holy Spirit.
I am working on the area of consistency in my life. Nothing is too big a task for God!
