When you open your eyes every morning (I'm assuming you open your eyes in the morning), is your first thought: Get me to the coffeemaker.
Or maybe: Am I late?
Or: I have a million things to do today, and I'm already behind.
Or: Five more minutes--where's the snooze button?
Or maybe it's a simple: Thank you--I'm alive, the sun is shining, my God loves me, today holds limitless possibilities, how can I best bring You glory, Lord?
I think God cares a lot about how we begin things...it sets the tone for the rest of whatever it is that we do, whether it's living out a day of vacation, pursuing an education, a marriage, or a ministry. Look at the way you begin things and compare the results of a day begun poorly with the results of a day begun meditating on God's Word, enjoying His beauty, and humbly submitting yourself to whatever He wants you to do (or not do).
God bless you today as You listen for His voice.
