FOOD FOR THE SPIRIT--Awake, My Soul!

I recently returned from camping for several days. I love camping, but always wind up SO EXHAUSTED afterwards! This morning as I tried to get out of bed and get ready for work, after hitting the snooze button at least four times, I thought a scripture in Romans, Chapter 13: "And that, knowing the time, that it is now high time to awake out of sleep. . . "

This is a call to awaken our spirits, an admonition to get up and "at 'em" in doing all righteousness. Another verse, this time in the Book of Mormon offers the same "wake up call":
"Awake, my soul, no longer droop in sin!" (2 Nephi, 4:28)

I started thinking, am I hitting my spiritual snooze button? Am I awake to the reality of my spiritual standing? Or am I in sleep-mode, snoring away while I could be working hard to build my own testimony, serve those around me, share the gospel or magnify my callings?

Anyway, something to think about . . . cock-a-doodle-doo!
