My Favorite Time Of Morning



My mornings have been the same for 
many, 
many years.  

I get up, 
make coffee, 
grab my Bible, 
and have some quiet time with the Lord.
This is a very special time 
that I look forward to 
on a daily basis. 
I normally begin in Genesis 
and 
work my way through to Revelation. 
It might take a while 
(like a few years) 
because I only read about 1-2 chapters a day.
There are times when I 
may not 
“get” 
what the writer is saying.
But that is okay.
This is not Bible Study time.
It is morning devotions.  
This is a time 
when 
the Holy Spirit 
ministers to me 
and 
speaks to my heart.
I cannot 
imagine 
going through my day 
without 
my time with the Lord.
Do I ever miss a day?
Sure.  
Always remember that God does not condemn, 
Satan does.  
He is known as 
the 
accuser 
of the brethren.  
He is the one that 
lays 
traps and snares 
for you 
in your walk with the Lord 
to make you stumble.
Let me encourage 
those of you reading this 
that do not have that 
daily time with the Lord to do so.
Try it for a 
month 
and see how 
your walk with the Lord changes.
Those who 
do have that time 
alone with the Lord, 
let me the first 
to encourage you to 
keep at it. 
And when you do miss for what ever reason, 
don’t beat yourself up 
because you miss a day.  
Just pick up where you left off 
and 
continue on.
