Early in the Morning

I love the Bible verses that reference the early morning hours. Being a morning person (and a late night one, too), I have found the time before dawn best for my quiet hour with God.

No interruptions.

Focus.

Prayer.

Silence. 

Study.

Deep thought.

Wise counsel.

Refreshing.

Energizing.

Mobilizing.

Go with God, beginning early in the day.

 

He is always the best start.
