How do your mornings begin? Rush rush rush? Slow and easy? However they begin, take some time to open your Bible and speak to God. The rest of your day will be better for it. You'll be better for it. Have a terrific day!
Hi Laura, It's nice to meet you. I followed your link from Kates. I start my conversation with Jesus before I even get out of bed, and it truly does make my day better. Blessings!!
That is such a beautiful picture. I love mornings...in the quiet of the morning is a perfect time to reflect upon God and His goodness. It is my favorite time of the day. :)Hope
I usually get up, get a cup of coffee going and do a bible study before the kiddos get up. That's my quiet time to really listen and to study the Word. You're right, if I get the Word in me first thing, I seem to have a much better day than if I rush around and not have time with the Lord. He knows our needs each and every day. I've been reading up a lot on the Grace. It's just so beautiful to have.... things go much smoother with his Grace!
I have a daughter named Amy. I'm sure you know that it means beloved. I also have a daughter named Emily Anne. Anne means full of grace. It's wonderful to see the grace developing in all our lives. Extending it to others can be as difficult as accepting it from God. ~smile~

I am learning that it is the utmost to stay in His Word firstly, Drink tea, while praying:) Have coffee with breakfast and thank you Jesus, I have been privileged and Blessed to be at Home Keeper. Loved this reminder! Roxy xo
I needed to remind myself. I'm listening to Isaiah on YouVersion this week. I've been through it enough times now, it's beginning to come alive to me. I know that I need to saturate myself in the Word this year.
Wise advice. My mornings start out in a rush most of the mornings I'm afraid, but I try to have time with God each morning before the busy-ness of the day engulfs me.

This life only works with Jesus. The next life is a continuation of this one—make sure you spend it with Jesus. Jesus is the only way to God the Father!
Hi Laura,
ReplyDeleteDevotion is in the first set of activities for my day. I am grateful for life, so I like to make sure I thank God for it.
I hope your day was great my friend :-)
Hi Kath,
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day! Blessings to you.

Yes, Hope, I do enjoy quiet mornings. In fact, a bit too much this morning! I let my older children sleep too late today!

Hi Betty Jo,
ReplyDeleteThat's the perfect way to start the day. I sometimes turn on my audio Bible before I get out of bed, too.
Blessings,

My morning always begins with coffee and "Good Morning God." Got in that habit a long time ago. I definitely need to spend more time with the Bible.
ReplyDeleteA couple of years ago I started reading and listening through the Bible with You Version and Bible Gateway. I really enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you Stacey!

ReplyDeleteI actually do better with bible reading and study later in the afternoon but your point is well made...be sure to fit it in and make it a priority! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, Deb. Whenever it works, it works!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite way to start the day -- my coffee, my Bible and my Lord. Love this post!
ReplyDeleteAmen, Linda!
ReplyDeleteKeep pursuing the Lord Marissa. He's pursuing you.
ReplyDeleteI really liked your Valentine's banner. I pinned it.
