Day 231: Passover

I've talked about biblical festivals before.  And here I am bringing them up again.  ;)
Tonight we observe and celebrate Passover.  The short story is that this observance, commanded by God, is to remember the deliverance from slavery/bondage.  He delivered the Israelites from their slavery to Egypt and he has delivered us from our slavery to the flesh.  I'm grateful for the command to observe, celebrate, and reflect on Passover and how I have seen God pass over me with his grace, love, and mercy.  How he has passed over my sin and forgiven my transgressions. It's an important time to me as I want to dwell on the greatness of God in my life.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
