For most of my career, I had
anything but a predictable work schedule. I might work day shift one day, night shift the next, and then back to day
shift. Sometimes I would wake up long
before the sun came up. Other days I would still be awake from the night
before when the new day dawned. For too
long I let my work schedule and the lack of a routine be an excuse that
explained my inability to consistently spend dedicated time with God and His
Word each day. "If I just had a
predictable routine," I would say to myself, "THEN, I would carve out
some time for God and be consistent in the Word."
