A week of truth

I have been wondering why my life is a constant depression and discouragement. So is husband's. One day he has to scrape me off the floor, the next day I do. What is wrong with us! We are healthy, have a nice family, we live and serve in Italy, we are loved, saved, cared for... Why are we worrying all the time? Why are we discontent, sad, ineffective?
I proposed a change. A week where we reduce entertainment and fill ourselves up with TRUTH all day long instead.

Goal: 
Stop worrying about money, future, and start focusing on the Lord and all the things above. Fill your head with truth and start being an encouragement to others.

Rules: 
NO entertainment (news, sports, pinterest, tv shows, movies) before dinner.
YES read the Bible, sing, read faith-strengthening books, watch RightNowMedia videos, teachings, pray, meditate, tell each other what the Lord is teaching you etc.

I expect MUCH out of our little experiment. Every night I plan to blog about the day and the things that I have learnt.
May God bless this experiment and use it for His Glory!
We sure need a change of heart.
