Employing Psalm 103, Julian Hardyman encourages us to talk to ourselves when we are struggling to praise God

I have two main problems in going to church services.

The first is when I am thinking about leaving the house (or am on my way) and I find myself wishing I was going to do something else instead – like staying at home to watch TV or browse a few websites. The second is when I am actually in the building and the service has started but I find singing the words in a heartfelt way difficult. My mind is distracted. Or simply lethargic.
