Why do we not dance through life singing His praise?

Wow, you Lord, are so awesome! You are all around me, never changing, always by my side. You answer my questions, providing me wisdom when nothing and no one else can. You are the Almighty One, all knowing and powerful. I love you, my Adonai! You speak to me in the darkness of the night and in the glow of the morning. You are my coming and my going, my alpha and omega, beginning and end. I long to praise you in your house forever. Your Word nourishes my soul and leaves me thirsting for more. I praise you that you have put the desire for your Word in my heart and in my mind. Purify me that I might reflect even a portion of your glory, Jesus. You are worthy of all my worship and all my desire for you. You are the Most High, Abba Father. Why do I not dance through life singing your praise!

So, a good portion of my day consists of answering phone calls, (well, not so much, anymore)and I am really working on inserting a bit of humor into my phone voice. I have figured out that smiling as you answer the phone (whether you feel like it or not) really does work! So also does a quick prayer for the person on the other end. But what works best is when I have a roomful of people talking as loud as they can, (paying no attention to the fact that my phone has just wrung) and me saying at least three times, "I'm sorry, but WHAT DID YOU SAY???" If you can't laugh about that, you might just as well hang it up--your sense of humor that is, NOT the phone!--so thank you to all of you who make my day brighter by your regular visits and the outrageous conversations that take place on a fairly regular basis...
