The Covenant

If you have the book, you know that there is a covenant inside. To me, Covenant is a very strong word. It's not a business contract that has clauses and fine print; it's not a promise. People can break promises, or cancel contracts, but there is something more to a covenant. If you've read any Old Testament, you know that nothing good ever came to people who broke a covenant.

Since I'm reading the book for the purpose of this blog, I am posting a modified version of the covenant here. I didn't take away from what was originally written, I simply added a few things to make it relevant to blogging. I'll put my words in italics. I encourage anyone who is reading along with me, to sign the covenant as well by commenting on it.

THE COVENANT
With God's help, I commit the next 40 days of my life to discovering God's Purpose for my life. I commit to sharing this journey with you readers by blogging about what I have read and what it means to me. I promise to be faithful and true in my writing.

There, that's not too hard is it? Take 40 days, just under 6 weeks, and spend a few minutes reading. There is enough time in each day to do everything God wants us to. This could be one of those things for you. I know it is for me. I don't know about you, but I'm excited and ready to begin. I hope you'll join me in this endeavor by reading and blogging with me. I am looking forward to tomorrow.
