How easily and often I am moved deeply by just reading the Word....when my spirit is tender, I often find myself wiping tears while I read. If I get a little calloused, that doesn't happen.

What do you do when you notice these things happening?
I'm trying to start my day with prayer. I find if I don't pray first thing, then I may not find time until the end of the day and then I get upset with myself. How can you put God first if you don't seek His face early?
I've been disciplining myself to read the word and study everyday, more or less depending on my work schedule, but always a daily bible reading (trying to read it through in a year again) and I've followed your example and added a chapter in Proverbs everyday.
And then there's fasting.....
