Our Thursday afternoon Bible study group has just begun a series using the BMS 'Discover your Shape in Mission' resource, something I used a long time ago, but remains valuable and relevant almost a decade later. One of the suggested exercises for the first study was that we each identified something we'd like to do that is pleasurable by the time we reached the end of the series. Some found it more difficult than others to accept the val;idity of choosing a leisure/pleasure activity but we pretty much managed it. No names, no pack drill (whatever that really means!) but here are the things we identified...
- Walk the Clyde footpath
- Take up baking again
- Practice playing hymns
- Learn a new piano piece
- Decorate a room
- Try to be more appreciative of others
We will hold one another accountable and hopefully our last meeting before Easter will include some musical and gastronomic fruits of our labours!!
