Your Early Hours

From: Wisdom From The Psalms

Psalm 5:3-4 "To you I pray, O Lord; at dawn You will hear my cry; at dawn I will plead before You and wait."

Though not ordinarily a morning person, Ann always loved those special times when she rose in time to see the sunrise. On mornings like this, who could doubt that there is a God? Ann's heart filled with a joy beyond words, and nothing could remove that joy during the day. Taking a Bible, she began to read and to pray.

God gives us special times in order that we might find joy and that we might find Him. He has created a glorious world, and He has freely given it to us.

The early quiet of the day is a beautiful time to encounter the Lord. Give Him your early hours. "Find your delight in the Lord Who will give you your heart's desire." (Psalm 37:4)
