Are you a morning person? Some people I know have a hard time getting going each morning while others try to beat the sun up so they can take in every moment of the day.

But those who have a hard time motivating themselves are normally those who say, "Don't talk to me until I have had my cup of coffee." So they roam around the house with their eyes half shut daring someone to speak or even acknowledge their existence.

It's during this silence that we also refrain from talking to God. We allow ourselves to make many decisions, prepare our day and even walk out the front door without even acknowledging God and to seek out His purpose for our day. It's almost like we run out to our work day forcing God to have to catch with us.

Psalms 55:17 says, "Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice."

Don't take another step or say another word to anyone with bowing your head and talking to God. Ask Him to walk before you, speak before you. Commit your day to him so that you do absolutely nothing that will displease Him.

Prayer: "God, help me to look to you not only as the one who ends my day but also the one who needs to start my day."
