Words In the Morning Matter

What wakes you in the morning? A child calling your name, a dog barking, maybe your alarm clock. Sometimes how we are woken up in the morning can set our mood for the entire day. If we wake up to a screaming toddler or an angry spouse, we may be crabby the rest of the day. Maybe we wake up to a nice hot cup of coffee made for us, which for me, would put me in a great mood for the day. What we start our day with can form our entire day.

The best way to start our day? God’s word. If we hear God’s word in the morning, whether that be through reading the Bible, a devotion, or maybe even your favorite Christian song, we are starting our day out right. Before our feet even hit the floor in the morning, talk with God, thank Him for the day he has given you, ask Him how he can use you today. Starting our day with God’s Word can help us be the best self that we can be for the day. We can spread God’s Word and love with those around us.

Prayer:
Dear Jesus, thank you for waking me today, for giving me a day to hear your word. Help me to listen to your word daily so I can be a blessing to those who I see throughout my day. Amen
