If you decide to finish much after the group finishes, you may not have the same encouragement and enthusiasm as when you are reading with the whole group&#8230; and we want you to finish!<\/p>\n<p>For some of you, catching up may seem impossible. But all things are possible with Christ&#8230; and don&#8217;t you think He&#8217;ll help you with this one especially?<\/p>\n<p>He has given you the time, it is up to you to decide how to use it.<\/p>\n<p>We have about a month to go&#8230; what can you set aside for a month to be sure to finish with us? Can someone help you get your other &#8216;chores&#8217; done for just a few weeks? Can you wake up even an extra hour and a half earlier? Or can you vow to read while you eat one meal each day&#8230; and before you go to bed? Can you set an alarm to go off every hour for a few hours and read for 15 minutes each time it sounds? <strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Think about what you can you do to really catch up and stay on track&#8230; and make plans to make it happen.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <em>Let us know what YOU can do or what you are doing in the comments of this post before you head over to your own group and check in there. Hopefully we&#8217;ll build up a great list of ideas to help each other in finding and using the time.<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Get ready for the week ahead of you<\/h2>\n<p>Click the highlighted text for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.momstoolbox.com\/blog\/bible-in-90-days-week-9\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bible in 90 Days Week 9 schedule and Daily SOAP Devotionals.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>You are Here in the Bible<\/h2>\n<p>Feel free to download the following overviews developed by Ted Cooper of the Bible in 90 Days ministry:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/momstoolbox.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/08\/you-are-here-lamentations.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Lamentations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/momstoolbox.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/08\/you-are-here-ezekiel.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Ezekiel<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/momstoolbox.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/08\/you-are-here-daniel.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Daniel<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Check in and let us know how you are doing<\/h2>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure you know the drill by now&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Checking in each week gives you a measuring post and a weekly goal to   keep you on track so that you can complete this goal with us.
