DAY 5 & 6

Week one of twelve is over. I feel like I've learned more knowledge about my faith than I every have before. I am trying my hardest to get everything I can. It's outrageous how much the devil wants to get ahold of me. The most I try to pay attention, the more distracting my thoughts become. The more I try to read, the more Netflix I want to watch. The more I try to stay away from girls, a girl from my past will try to text me. I've been winning some battles and losing others. 

I'm almost done the first book. I'm very happy to be finished with it. I want to move onto the next book, because that one from what my roommate, Josh has been telling me, it's deep and very insightful. This book I'm reading is good, but it kind of feels like it is beating a dead horse. It will tell you what you need to know in the first couple pages of the chapter and then just beat the point home for the rest. It's alright, very insightful look into the Gospel, and an easy read, but a tiring one.

I really am looking forward to getting some time with my mentor, Joe Burgers. He is awesome and I really want to start to hash out some of the issues I have with him. He's super understanding and patient, which is what I need right now. I talked to Kansas today about my tour pastor idea. He didn't seem against it. It was sort of a "we'll see, but I hope for the best" type of answer at the end, which I figured is about the best I'm going to get at this point. And that is fine with me; I know I have some issues to deal with, and that is why I'm here. 

Continued prayer is needed. Thanks for the donations.
