Taking G - d for Granted

B"H

How many times do we take G - d's existence for granted ? Other totally deny Him.
We get up in the morning, maybe say a prayer (or a few prayers) and what do we do afterwards ? Breakfast and rushing through the day.

While men touch their Zizit, do they really think of G - d or is their mind wandering around somewhere else ?

In the "Shema" we say that we should ALWAYS and EVERYWHERE think of G - d but who really does so ?


Sounds too pessimistic ?


I would rather say realistic and keep on promising myself to do more but a few minutes later, life comes along and most of my promises and plans are forgotten. The sun is shining for granted and the food appears for granted. However, I know where everything is coming from and where the original source is. And this is, at least, something optimistic and thus encouraging.
