Pharaoh's dream often mirrors my daily life. Times of laziness have undone what I built during periods of hard work. Seasons of indifference have numbed the warmth of my passionate commitment. Worldliness has undone my spiritual growth. I must watch for empty prayers, praises, duties, and experiences, as they can drain my comfort and peace. Neglecting even a brief moment of prayer costs me all the spirituality I've gained.

If I don't seek new strength from heaven, my soul soon starves like a famine-stricken land. Indifference, worldliness, and self-indulgence leave my heart barren, making my past growth unhelpful. I must be vigilant, avoiding fruitless days and wasted hours. Consistent progress towards my spiritual goals will bring me closer to them. Backsliding steals my hard-earned advances and keeps me far from my high calling.

To make my days fruitful, I must spend them with the Lord, in His service, in His company, and in His way. Why shouldn't each year be richer in love, usefulness, and joy? I'm closer to heaven, with more experience of my Lord, and I should reflect Him more. Lord, please keep the emptiness of soul far from me. Let my spirit be well-fed, so I can praise your name.
