Morning Discipline

Day 1 · Morning Discipline

The First Word

“In the morning, Lord, You hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before You and wait expectantly.”Psalm 5:3

Reflection

Whoever gets the first word of your day tends to get the day. Before the phone, before the news, before the to-do list — one verse and one sentence to God. The discipline is not length; it is order. God first.

A prayer

Lord, before anything else, You. I give You the first word of this day and ask You to set its course. I lay my requests before You and wait expectantly for Your goodness. Amen.

Carry this with you

What currently gets the 'first word' of your morning? What small change would put God first?
