Human nature gets very excited when it comes to starting something new. We get excited over a new job, message, car, house, newborn son/daughter, boyfriend/girlfriend, or marriage. We are excited for novelty. But what is the difficult task upon receiving nice things or even being treated nicely?
Humans have a hard time sustaining and keeping the momentum of novelty. It is almost as though poetic justice comes to remind us of our original sin. Eve had sinned because she saw what was beautiful, and she partook of the fruit. But in partaking the fruit, the forbidden, it did not satisfy. In fact, it created a vacuum or black hole because it broke trust and connection to Father.
So now, you need to fight to stay in momentum with thanksgiving within each season, job, task, or assignment. It is to build patience and endurance. It is to come to know Love, for Love is patience. Scrolling on your phone like some mad person will destroy what little patience you possess and bring you to AdHD. A person who cannot be still, and if you cannot be still, you will miss the Lord as you keep leaving your place. I believe ADHD, in most cases, is a learned behavior with deficiencies in proper vitamins, and must be tackled with the learned behavior of patience.
Therefore, learn to keep and sustain the momentum of thanksgiving and hope. Otherwise, you will lose interest and become lazy and ungrateful. Then what will happen? You will continue to be a bottom-feeder who thinks you are flying and one who hears God.
Represent and honor your God properly, or else you will be punished for breaking the Third Commandment and declared “I do not know you nor your behavior!
James 1:4 NLT “So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.”

So when it comes to scrolling on the phone, it means when you scroll like some mad person who just cannot find satisfaction in anything you see. It all becomes very boring after a while.
