Day 1 Meditation (Revelation 4; 5:6). Why is everyone around the throne worshipping? Why are they chanting and singing? Why do you think that we get bored with worship after a few minutes? What does that indicate about our hearts? What can we do to change this? The only proper response of mankind to God's presence is worship. And that is what everyone in heaven is doing. They are spontaneously responding to the love and glory they can see with their eyes. These are the blessed ones who have let their hearts be filled with the love of God as St Paul tells us in Romans. St Augustine said that our hearts were made for loving You, and they will never find rest until they find their rest in You. I too have let other things occupy my heart and therefore I am restless. I know what I ought to do but am procrastinating. Why? I don't know. But I want to change. My heart must be as soft as it was 2 decades ago for Jesus. I have to clear out the clutter immediately. And the only way I can do it is by regularly feeding on the Word of God. Setting aside time every single day to renew my relationship with my loving Heavenly Father. Ask His forgiveness for having become complacent. This is why I wanted to spend some time with the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world. Lord, have mercy on me. forgive me my laziness. Forgive me my "busyness". forgive me my neglect of Your love and Your word. Let me know once again the joy of Your salvation. Lord, hear me.
