In the morning when I rise...give me Jesus!


I have never been a morning person. Look at the time of this post...10:45. My beloved husband woke me up at 10:00 today! Actually, I'm a little afraid of storms and think I was hoping to sleep through it....couple that with the fact this one has my daughter's middle name "Fay" and you can just imagine me with a pillow over my head hoping it moves over us quickly. For those of you who know me really well...my mom used to take us into the closet when it stormed when we were children because she was afraid of lightning so you can see that the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree...only by the grace of God have I only pulled my children into the closet and only during a hurricane!


But today's reading in the Psalm was so beautiful...it makes you want to be the kind of person that says "Good morning, Lord!" instead of "Good Lord, it's morning". What a glorious thing to start the day with the consciousness of the Lord.


Psalm 5:3 "My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord: In the morning I will direct it to You, and I will look up"

Though the storm clouds surround me, I will enfold myself into the hem of His garment!
