--Norman Vincent Peale
Wow. Who couldn't use more energy? I think this quote is saying that when you immerse yourself and become passionate about something, you will be more driven and more enthusiastic about it. If you love to play basketball, you will enjoy practicing and playing. If you don't, you won't. It's a lot easier to work at something that you like than something you care nothing about.
I think that applies to our faith also. If we lose ourselves in God, we will have more energy and zeal to serve him. If you start your day by praying or reading your Bible, I think you'll find that you are ready to face whatever comes at you in the day ahead. When you find yourself struggling, stop and pray - rejuvenate your faith. At the end of the day, pray and turn it all over to God. Let him carry your burdens and you'll sleep well at night.
Readers - what do you lose yourself in? What are some other ways you find to energize your faith?
