Main Scripture: Psalm 3:5 (KJV)
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.”
There are blessings that we sometimes tend to forget to thank God for. God woke us up this morning. He allowed us to sleep and rest through the night. We were able to wake up with the activity of our limbs, get up, wash our faces, and brush our teeth. We even had a mind to think and to thank Him for waking us up this morning. These are blessings that we should be thankful for. We often tend to overlook the blessings that we think are small because they have become part of our daily routine. For example, we expect to wake up the next day with everything already planned out. We have our schedules and plans for what we’re going to do, but we often forget to say, “If it’s the Lord’s will, I will do this or that.” We must not take waking up for granted, but humbly thank God for giving us another opportunity to wake up. One thing I personally do every morning, before I do anything else, is thank God for waking me up.
Before you even begin thinking about what you have to face or what you’re going to do throughout the day, talk with God in prayer.
Acknowledge Him and thank Him for another day to live for Him. Thank Him for allowing you to even begin your day.
