Why am I so complaisant when things are going well? It seems it takes a challenge or fear that a challenge is coming for me to be more intentional about doing the things that I know benefit me.

This is true for healthy diets and exercise, but even more so for being consistent in spiritual disciplines that I know, f-r-o-m  p-e-r-s-o-n-a-l  e-x-p-e-r-i-e-n-c-e bless me: make my sleep more restful, my days more productive and my life more sweet in general. Yet I must keep restarting, relearning, remembering again and God keeps calling me back in love. I feel that I'm making only baby steps and I am frustrated with myself with such small victories.

Yet this verse (Zephaniah 3:17) makes my heart beat faster and my sight blur with tears.

"The Lord your God is with you,..........................................The Lord my God is with me

    the Mighty Warrior who saves.........................................     The mighty Warrior who saves
He will take great delight in you;..........................................He will take great delight in me
    in His love He will no longer rebuke you...........................     in His love He will no longer rebuke me
    but will rejoice over you with singing.” ............................but will rejoice over me with singing.

The idea of God singing is rather breathtaking in its own right, but to sing over me? I can only say, "Wow!"

Dear God, Thank-You. Thank-You. Thank-You. Thank-You. Thank-You. Thank-You. I love you. AMEN
