We Are What We Practice

Life consists of daily habits and behaviors that you and I practice routinely. In fact, whatever we do in normal routine life is what we will do during crisis and peril. If our trust is in money more than God, we’ll attempt to finance our way out of crisis and buy our way into happiness and favor. When the money is gone, our emotional well-being goes with it. If we invest our time and trust in social gatherings and circles, that’s who we’ll look to when we need a friendly ear or a word of advice. If we fall out of sorts with those we’ve depended on, we’re just alone. If our self-images are dependent upon our employment and we live, eat and breathe our jobs, we’ll feel lost and out of place when we retire, or we’re terminated. We are what we do!
