Always

"You have loved us first, O God, alas!  We speak of it in terms of history as if You have only loved us first but a single time, rather than without ceasing.  You have loved us first many times and every day and our whole life through.  When we wake up in the morning and turn our soul toward You - You are the first - You have loved us first; if I rise at dawn and at the same second turn my soul toward You in prayer, You are there ahead of me, You have loved me first.  When I withdraw from the distractions of the day and turn my soul toward You, You are the first and thus forever.  And yet we always speak ungratefully as if You have loved us only once."
--Soren Kierkegaard

God is always there.  Always loving us.  How often do we turn to God?  And worship and love God?
Just a thought to ponder...
