We must always remember the importance of drawing near to God. On Monday, we learned that worship changes our perspective. This change in perspective not only applies to difficult circumstances, but also when we are seduced by secular success and the mindset that what we have attained has been solely by our efforts. In essence, the prophet proclaimed to the people, “You have forgotten about God’s calling on your lives. You thought that what you had obtained would last, but you have to keep going back to receive your fill. You wonder why you cannot seem to reap as you did before.” Often, we try to better ourselves in every other area of our lives, and yet forget that without God at the center, nothing will ever be enough.
