If you woke up this morning and just pray? If only to say: Thank you Lord for waking me up? Last night was'nt guaranteed you know, but you're here. Have a beautiful Sabbath morning!

Blessing to you all, Betsey.

Funny you mention this Betsey. I have an odd habit of praying when I'm first conscious in the morning. I pray before getting out of bed. Sometimes I doze off again, and repeat my prayers, but I do pray for the day and that the Lord will protect me..again, and again and again...then I get out of bed

God bless

Usually the mornings are pretty quiet around here. When I open my eyes in the mornings, the first thing I usually seek out is a ray of sunshine. My ears are usually "trained", so to speak, to hear the birds chirping outside my window, sitting on the tree branches. Even they are singing praises: "Glory to the Master"! I believe. (smiling).

Do you know that you can hear Him in the stillness of the day? Oh, that You have woken me/you up this morning Lord! Do you know the most dangerous times of your life is when you close your eyes to "sleep"?

Some of you say that you don't believe in God, nor do you have faith in Him. I ask you: Do you not go to sleep in blind faith? In hopes that you will be awaken the next day? Who do you think woke you up? Some built in mechanism that on cue; springs open you're eyes? Or, you're alarm clock that half of you don't hear anyway? Who? Do tell!

Opening you're eyes in the morning and inhaling a new breath, is not guaranteed. So why not rise with a new sense of gratefulness, that I'm ALIVE!! Thank you for waking me up this morning! Or just a simple whisper of .............Thank you Lord.

That's all. What do you have to lose?

Of course, by the way of what you believe. Call on the name of Jesus and Satan will flee away from you, the very same thing in which you're trying to hold on to, effiebriest. But trust that He's here.............waiting on you..............to come as you are!

Whenever you ready. I can help. And I hope that (f) is for forgiveness, cause you're gonna need that frequently. Forgive me Father for I have fallen. For He is faithful and just to forgave you.
