Psychologists who deal with the study of perception refer to a phenomenon called " habituation". The idea is that when a new object or stimulus is introduced to our inviroment, We are intensely aware of it. But after a while we dont even notice that its there. When people move into a new home, they generaly have a list of must repair. Five years later, they still have the same list of repairs. but the lack of repairs doesnt bother them any more. One of the greatest challenges in life is fighting what might be spiritual habituation. We simply drift into acceptance of life in spiritual mantance mode. We rationslize it because we think " Im not involved in major scandalous sin. I havent done anything to jepordize getting into heaven. Im doing ok.. " And we forget that Jesus never said "I have come that you might be ok." Okay is not okay. We have a kind of spiritual attention deficit disorder that God will have to break through.
