Perhaps it takes a purer faith to praise God for unrealized blessings than for those we once enjoyed or those we enjoy now.

Praise God for Unrealized Blessings – AW Tozer
What Are You Living For? – Ken Sande
What are you really living for? It’s crucial to realize that you either glorify God, or you glorify something or someone else. You’re always making something look big. If you don’t glorify God when you’re involved in a conflict, you inevitably show that someone or something else rules your heart.

How to Worship God Wholeheartedly – Unknown
How do we worship our God wholeheartedly? To answer the question we must respond to the command … “If you love me, you will obey what I command” (John 14:15). True Love is complete obedience … half obedience is no obedience. If you love Jesus, you will obey what He commands. This is true love and true worship.

Too Busy? – AB Christiansen
Too busy; O forgive, Dear Lord, that I should ever be, too much engrossed in earthly tasks, to spend an hour with thee.

A Mighty Longing After God – AW Tozer
I want deliberately to encourage this mighty longing after God. The lack of it has brought us to our present low estate. The stiff and wooden quality about our religious lives is a result of our lack of holy desire. Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ to His people. He waits to be wanted. Too bad that with many of us He waits so long, so very long, in vain.
