certainly agree that our â€œChristian activitiesâ€ should be meaningful and not just another obligation, but the flip side is that, when struggling with life issues, burnout, or any kind of dry season, it really pays to keep those routines going while your attitude is off-track.

I too have acted out Christian activities out of fear. I’m sure we are all guilty of this. A normal routine is a good thing to keep us stable but we should also remember that our hearts need to be in our prayers. I believe that reading the Bible regularly can help us keep our hearts and minds in the right place. Psalms would be helpful to read when we feel that we are not using our hearts or doing our Christian activities to please God but to secure ourselves from our fears. I’m glad this topic was brought up.

Good point, Ruth. Sometimes having a “normal routine” to fall back on can keep us from falling off the deep end when we feel spiritually or emotionally embattled.
