Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.
(Mark 1:35 NIV)
Lord, how many times have I resolved to spend time first thing each morning in Your Word and in prayer? How many times have I neglected to do so? A day that begins with You, Lord, is surely to be a day blessed by You. Give me an insatiable thirst for time with you, Lord. Thank you for Your example, Lord. Thank you for always being available to meet with me. I plan to take better advantage of it than I have in the past. Thank you for watching over me, Lord.
