I've learned to love rising early in the morning while it's still dark and spend much time alone with my Lord, just me and Him; no one to interfere or come between our divine relationship; I in Him and He in me, together forever, eternally.
Mark 1:35 tells us that even Jesus rose early while it was very dark and went to a solitary place so He could talk with His Father, just One on One with no disturbances, drawing strength and direction for His day ahead.
Having learned from his past the need for heart felt prayer and God's guidance, David found the need to rise early in the morning, while it was still dark, to lift his voice unto the Lord (Psalm 5:3); and he taught his son, Solomon, to lay aside his own thinking and trust God for ALL his needs as noted in Proverbs 3:5-6; to Trust in the Lord with all his heart and lean not unto his own understanding, but in all his ways to acknowledge the Lord and He would direct his path; and God indeed saw the humbleness of Solomon's heart and gave him the desires along with much wisdom and understanding.
Learning to lean on God for all my needs, and trust Him to fulfill His written promises; I rise early each morning with heartfelt praise, thanking Him for another day filled with fresh mercies and blessings to be released as I follow His lead. I praise Him for the very breath I breathe as He opens my eyes; for the ease of movement as I rise from my bed and begin to move about; for the functioning of my body as I move and have my being; and for the blessings He provides, one step at a time, throughout my day. In all my ways, I am learning to acknowledge Him and He directs my steps, as I walk in His Love and in the Light of His Word.
I pray that today you will make time to meditate on Him and His goodness, so you can enjoy a wonderfully blessed day too. God loves you and so do I~~~
