Default Start your day with prayer

Quote:
Prayer for the Day

I pray that I may meet the test of waiting for God's guidance. I pray that I will not go off on my own.

24 Hours
Life is just so much better when I remember to pray at the beginning of each day. I love this quote. How often I have started my day without asking for direction and have started out without any knowing thoughts and it is only when I get into a quandry or wonder what the heck I am doing, that I have to stop and restart my day.

Prayer is asking for help. Meditation is listening for the answers.

Sometimes it comes in the form of thought, or a reading, a song, a post on a message board, a phone call, but it will come if I am patient and willing to listen.

When I turn the day over, those little things that turn up makes me know that God is on my side and that I am truly blessed.

Today's reading reminds me that God is only a prayer away. If one is good, more is better when it comes to alcohol, it only stand to reason that it works for prayer too.

Each day when I put my life into the care of my God, I have daily reprieve from that first one! I am given a choice. I chose prayer every morning to start my day, a prayer during the day to touch base, and a prayer of thanks every night.
From 2010
No matter when my day starts, I need to hit the floor praying, if I don't have time before I get out of bed.

Today I jumped out of bed to answer the phone. I had to go back to bed, and start my day again. It has never been good for me to just jump up with a start and try to go from there. I need to be balanced and centered before I start the day and to do that I need to go to my God and ask for His Help to lead, guide and direct my path in today, no matter when it starts and/or finishes.
