"Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other." -Deuteronomy 4:39 (NIV)
My to do list seems to continually grow. Kind of like one step forward two steps back, it seems that as I cross one thing off, two more get added. As our to do lists grow, sometimes parts of our routine can be forgotten or we can go through the motions without consciously thinking about what we are doing. While some things we can do without much thought, there are important things that require our mindful attention!
As we prepare for our days, we should focus on God and His presence in our lives.We can begin by talking to Him through prayer. Taking time to talk to God should be a mindful action that is more than a task on our to do list. Time with God builds our relationship with Him. Through this relationship, we can get our days off to a good start by acknowledging God's place in the universe, the world, and our lives, giving Him all glory and praise. By inviting God into our lives each day can help us face all our tasks and help us focus on moving forward in His will!
Step one each day should be acknowledging God's place in your life and building your relationship with Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for being part of my life. Help me to never take You for granted and to always begin each day by spending time with You. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
