Silence. It's for sure hard to come by in our home. With two rambunctious toddlers, high school boys in and out, a ten year old with more friends than I can count; silence is a rarity. I am the oldest of seven children, and I wouldn't have it any other way; but spending quiet time with God is so important to me.
I recently started a new workout routine early in the mornings. I wake up at 5am, workout, eat some type of protein packed breakfast, shower and spend quiet time with God. Although pulling myself out of my cocoon in the mornings is far from easy, getting my day going with quietness all around me is such a blessing. It is so important to me to have that quiet time with God. Something about a still, silent room with me, my coffee, and Jesus is so precious. I notice when I don't wake up early and have that silence, I am much more moody and stressed throughout the day.
God is everything. He is love. He is health. He is happiness. He is hope. He is a redeemer. He is a caretaker. He is acceptance. GOD is my father; and he deserves every last bit of my time and attention. I know that by spending these quiet mornings with him, reflecting on his word, will only make me stronger in my faith and bring me closer to him. Even if you have obligations early in the morning, waking up just fifteen minutes earlier, praying and spending time in the word will make the world of a difference in your day. God deserves it.
Happy Tuesday, God bless you!
Xo,
Faith
