Day 20: The Halfway Mark

Halfway there! Wow, it has been a great twenty days. And I haven't missed one yet!

As awesome as it has been, it's getting tough to keep the content up. Writing once every few days made it easy to write a post since I had ideas floating around in my brain, but since I'm writing every day, it's not so easy! Still, I am enjoying the focused opportunity to write with this creative outlet.

Still, today, I celebrate getting halfway there.

Halfway marks can be significant times to reflect, celebrate, and plan for that next half. Going into something, I rarely understand to the full extent what is going to be involved, but by the time I get halfway there, I can usually predict what the next half is going to look like. Halfway marks can also be times of burnout.

When I should be saying: "I'm halfway there!"

Sometimes I say: "I'm only halfway there?!"

I wonder what went through Jesus' mind when he came to his halfway mark of his time here on earth. I wonder what went through his mind when he came to the halfway mark of his active ministry. Did he celebrate? Was it a serious time? Was it even a significant thought? I don't know.

Thanks for making it through the first half with me. See you in the last half.
