Frank Laubach wrote in his book, “Practicing His Presence”: “Humble folks often believe that walking with God is above their heads, or that they may ‘lose a good time’ if they share all their joys with Christ. What a tragic misunderstanding to regard Him as a killer of happiness! A chorus of joyous voices round the world fairly sing that spending their hours with the Lord is the most thrilling joy ever known, and that beside it a ball game or a horse race is stupid. Spending time with the Lord is not a grim duty. And if you forget Him for minutes or even days, do not groan or repent, but begin anew with a smile. Every moment can be a fresh beginning.”
