I think it's weird when people only acknowledge God when good things happen to them. I don't know. Maybe I'm silly. But it just seems contrary to the whole "christian" thing... right? Only bringing attention to your love for God when God bestows good things on you? Or better yet, only bringing attention to God's love for you when God bestows good things on you. Either way, it just seems a little odd to me. Why don't we follow Him daily and acknowledge Him daily instead of acknowledging Him and following Him when we feel especially good about ourselves or life?

It just doesn't reflect what it means to me to follow God if you don't acknowledge Him in the good times, bad times, boring times, times when your walk with God is completely stagnant, times when you don't know, times when you don't care, times when you need, times when you want, times when you hurt, times when you're just surviving.

Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.
Deutoronomy 4:39

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6
