I like that new song by Bruno Mars. You know the one..."Today, I don't feel like doing anything...I just wanna stay in my bed". That is how I feel some days. I don't feel like getting up, getting dressed, going to work, writing, or doing anything that takes more effort than changing the TV channel. There are days where I don't feel like reading or praying or being a Christian for that matter. You can try to act holy but you probably have days where you feel the same way. These days don't come very often for me but they come often enough. I am sure you have the same type days in your life. Leave the PJ's on, eat Ramen Noodles, watch re-runs, and let the gross bodily functions flow. Those days where you don't have to dress to impress or please everyone can be refreshing. So what do you do when you don't feel like doing what you need to do? Do you just fake it? Do you just smile and go through the motions? Do you send God a few courtesy prayers and read a one verse devotional? What do you do on those days where the inspiration and motivation to be great just aren't there?
Maybe you can just take the day off and forget about Jesus for a while? Or you could just ignore your life's purpose for a day?
No!!
Here's what you do. Suck it Up! Push past it all and live the life God intended. Find inspiration in the Word. Get motivation from God's whisper. People depend on you. They need you to be great. They need you to help be the light in a dark world. There is no time to flop around in the world of mediocrity. Be great!
