Musar zu Dewarim 26:16

היום הזה ה' אלוקיך מצוך . Rashi explains that the commandments should appear to us as if they had only been made on that very day. Rashi adopts the same approach when explaining in 27,9: "Keep silence, and hear O Israel, this day you have become a people to the Lord your G–d." Rashi writes: "You should consider each day as the one on which you entered into the covenant with G–d." This is a very important rule, which, when practiced, helps us to perform G–d's commandments with eagerness, as one performs a task newly assigned. It helps not to treat Torah as something that we are so familiar with that we fall into the habit of neglecting its demands. The Arizal explains 28,47: "because you did not serve the Lord your G–d in joy and with a glad heart when you enjoyed everything in abundance," in a similar vein. G–d teaches us that performance of His commandments must be accompanied by a greater joy than the joy one feels for all the material blessings G–d has bestowed on one. It is not enough merely to serve the Lord and obey His commandments. We must do so joyfully.
