Mornings

Ash Wednesday 

Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. ~ Psalm 5:3 (NLT)

Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray. ~ Mark 1:35 (NLT)
Lord, 
THANKS: Thank you for being there when I wake up in the morning. Each and everyday you are still with me.
REGRETS: I'm not much of a morning person and I don't always start the day out with you -- even though you are there. Sometimes my mind gets working so fast with all the things I think I need to do that I forget.
INTERCESSION:  I need to find some isolated places to be with you. Help me to find that sweet spot.
PURPOSE: In spite of my poor prayer practices I'm still going to wait for your responses. I wait with eager expectation because I know what kind of a God you are.
Amen.
