Life at Fever Pitch

This is from today's Tozer:

Revival: Living at a Fever Pitch

And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men.
-Colossians 3:23

We live at a fever pitch, and whether we are erecting buildings,
laying highways, promoting athletic events, celebrating special days
or welcoming returning heroes we always do it with an exaggerated
flourish. Our building will be taller, our highway broader, our
athletic contest more colorful, our celebration more elaborate and
more expensive than would be true anywhere else on earth. We walk
faster, drive faster, earn more, spend more and run higher blood
pressure than any other people in the world.

In only one field of human interest are we slow and apathetic: that
is the field of personal religion. There for some strange reason our
enthusiasm lags. Church people habitually approach the matter of
their personal relation to God in a dull, half-hearted way which is
altogether out of keeping with their general temperament and wholly
inconsistent with the importance of the subject. Of God and Men,
3-4.

That certainly hits home with me. How about you?
