Seek God Early
You have surely heard the saying
that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A similar concept
applies to our hearts and minds. The fuel that we give them each morning greatly affects the remainder of the day. Think of time in God’s Word, prayer, and meditation as spiritual nourishment for your relationship with the Lord.
David began his day with God. In Psalm 63, he described seeking the Lord early (the literal translation of earnestly).
He woke up ravenous for His Creator, and after filling his yearning
soul with the fullness of God, he broke out in praise and thanksgiving
to the Lord. Even when night came, he was still thinking about His
heavenly Father as he lay in bed.
Just imagine having a day like
that—filled with joy and gratitude to God. This is possible when we set
apart the beginning of our day to spend with the Lord, listening to Him
speak through His Word and talking to Him in prayer. Our blessing will
be even richer when we stay mindful of God throughout the day and into
the night—contemplating who He is and how He works. Seeking the Lord not
only fills our empty souls; it also increases our hunger for more of
Him.
Do you find it a struggle to set apart
time with the Lord each morning? Lifelong habits begin with baby steps,
not grand, overwhelming resolutions. Start today—set aside fifteen
minutes just one morning. Try this for a few days, and see if the Lord
begins to satisfy your soul and increase your hunger for Him.
