Many people don’t realize how important the morning is, especially those first moments of time that we are awake. God calls the sun to rise for us. He is eager for us to wake up and talk to Him again.
David the psalmist talked a lot about mornings, saying “This is the day that the Lord has made; I will rejoice and be glad in it.” (See Psalm 118:24). David didn’t always feel like rejoicing, but he decided to rejoice in God’s new day.
As soon as you get up, look at yourself in the mirror, smile, and say, “I am going to have a good day because Jesus loves me.”
Prayer of the Day: Father, thank you for the new day You have made! Make me aware of the many blessings I enjoy, joy, Your love, and the promise of Your constant presence, amen.
