And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, He departed and went out to a desolate place, and there He prayed.
Good Morning Jesus!
You usually don’t see me here this early in the morning. It’s still dark and quiet and peaceful. Thank you for waking me so I can watch the sun rise with You. The colors You display in the early morning, show me how wonderful it will be to live with You in heaven. I praise You for all that You have provided for me to live this life to it’s fullest. I love You for gifting me with Your Spirit.
It’s probably going to be a busy day, Jesus. It seems like they usually are. But for the moment I want to just enjoy Your presence. I know You will help me prioritize the day and sort through the challenges that will arise. I know You will remind me often that You are only a thought away and excited to help me.
Jesus, I thank and praise You for Your example to show me just how important prayer is. It’s one of the ways I can get to know You. When You were on earth, You cherished these times with Your Father, help me to hold them just as close to my heart, as You do. Help me to wake each morning, anticipating spending some time with You before my day begins.
I love You so very much, Jesus, because one thing I know, You will never forsake me or leave me. Your faithfulness is beyond words.
Amen
