Morning People
This is how I know God has a sense of humor. I am a confirmed night owl. I'd much rather stay up til midnight and wake up when I'm done sleeping! Then, one day I discovered that I really enjoyed co-hosting a morning radio show with a friend of mine. That was thirty-plus years ago! I am still waking up at 4am to broadcast a morning radio show... and I love it! Oh I still fight the urge to stay up late. But, somewhere along the way I learned that there are benefits to rising early in the morning.
There is something sweet about beginning the day when things are still quiet. The birds haven't even begun to sing yet. In the quiet I have a chance to set my mind and check my heart. My first conversation of the day is with God. There are more than 200 Bible verses that reference morning. One of my favorites? God's mercies are new every morning! (Lamentations 3:23)
I read Psalm 90 this morning and verse 14 jumped out at me. "Satisfy us in the morning with Your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days." Are you in need of some joy this morning? Longing for a reminder from God that He dearly loves you? Look to Him this morning. He's waiting for us with new mercies and a song of joy!
