I've always heard the phrase, "How time flies!" The older I get the more I feel the effects of not having "enough time". All sorts of things seem to pack my days - my job, house work, taking care of my son, church, trips to the store, shows on TV, time with my loving, wonderful husband, etc. If only my resolve to manage my time was better than it is. How I long for time alone with Christ in the mornings. Time that would stand still and allow me to know Him more. David referenced many times in the Psalms how important his time with the Lord is in the morning.- Psalm 5:3 - "in the morning I lay my request before you"
- Psalm 59:16 - "in the morning I will sing of your love"
- Psalm 90:14 - "Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love"
- Psalm 130:6 - "My soul waits for the Lord more than the watchmen wait for the morning"
It is no wonder that I long for time with Him in the morning. It is the only way to start my day. What to do? I must learn to be a better steward of my time for I only have 24 hours in a day and I'm not promised another day. The process of learning...may I be found obedient!
