Spiritual ADHD BY: KB © 4.13.15

I was sitting reading my devotional this morning when it dawned on me that I have become more preoccupied with reading and writing about what I've read and learned rather than the act of worshiping the ONE who provided the knowledge. My worship and time with God has become scripted and rote. I am more preoccupied with the task than I am with the praise……and I wonder why I’m in the humdrum's.

Real praise is about forgetting myself and my feelings and allowing the Holy Spirit to inhabit. Real praise is about me training my mind to stay on the things of God. Real praise comes about when I can block out distractions and staying in the moment of praise.

In Hosea 13:6 God says concerning the Israelites “but when they had grazed, they became full, they were filled, and their heart was lifted up; therefore they forgot me.”


I thank God for the revelation; I won’t beat myself up about my lack of focus because I know that I am human and this may not be the last time that I have to sit with myself and admit that I have been “less than”. I am not afraid of my frailties.
