We are already 2 weeks into the new year, and they have been packed with lots of life lessons already. I've started a new routine in the mornings. Well, prayerfully it will end up as a new routine at least. For the past several months I have gone through the same cycle every morning - coffee pot on, feed the munchkins, pour coffee, then plop in front of the t.v. to catch up on the morning news. However Tuesday morning started a bit differently. My heart has been burdened lately over several issues concerning things going on in the world in and around us, spiritual issues, having nothing to do with what the news reporter will tell me. So, instead of sitting down in front of the t.v., I opened the laptop, pulled up www.desiringgod.org and just randomly picked a sermon to listen to. WHAT A IMPACT IT HAD!!! Starting your day with the word of God filling your thoughts, heart, soul, and mind is SO much better than listening to who killed who on the news, or who was injured in a house fire. Starting my day with a lesson from the scriptures instead of garbage on the tube has given me strength and the fuel I need to get through my day. "Just a closer walk with thee"...isn't that what it's all about? Pick up that manual for life each morning before the remote!! It's the WORD OF GOD...let it sink in...the word of God...wow! Exciting isn't it!?!?!?
