Psalm 59:16
But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
Good Morning and welcome to my early morning random thoughts!
This morning, I do as I have been accustomed to, praying before I even open my eyes in the morning. I know this sounds a bit odd~ but once I open my eyes and shift around in bed my baby and husband also begin stirring and I may have to wait sometime before I can pray. So I start my day in prayer before I even let anyone in the house know I am awake by stirring in bed or opening my eyes.
God is just so AWESOME!
How can you not start your day praising Him? In my bedroom, the window faces east~ to me this is just so wonderful because in the early morning, the sun sends it's rays of light through my window, tickling my eyelids to open and see what a beautiful day the Lord has made for me! I am truly blessed and thankful to God for this every morning.
I cannot even begin to count all the things I have to give God praise for before I even open my eyes in the morning~ I have a comfortable bed with clean sheets, warm blankets, soft pillows. These are in a bedroom inside my home where my family and I are protected from the elements. I can hear the clock ticking next to my bed, reminding me that I have electricity. There are literally a minimum of 100 things that I could name that I have to PRAISE God for just laying in bed first thing in the morning.
Back to the start of this, I was laying in bed, saying my morning prayer, when it occured to me as I PRAISED and thanked God for my wonderful life that there are some who are not feeling God's love in their lives. Some people who are very close to my heart. How do I reach these people?
I know that whenever I am not sure about something all I need to do is ask God and He will give me the answer...
John 13:34-35 Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
Thats my answer~ all I need to do is love on them~ in that way they will come to know the LORD and how amazing He is.
