What Critter Are You Based On How You Work?
Five Minute Friday is so much fun for me. No pressure! Simply a word prompt on twitter (#fmfparty) on Thursday night and then write. No over thinking or editing. There is a linkup on Friday at http://katemotaung.com where we can read other’s five minute free write.
This week’s prompt is: Morning
_________________________________________________


Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love, so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.Psalm 90:14 (NLT)


Are you among the early morning risers club? 

What time is early for you?


We hear all the time to wake up early so we can get quiet time alone with the Lord in the morning before anyone else wakes up.


Not to be too flippant but HA! I really am a morning person but there is no way I’m ever going to get time alone in the morning unless I wake up at the border between one day and the next.



You see, my hubby is a VERY early morning riser. As in 4:30 am is sleeping in for him.


I’m sorry but I just can’t make myself get up that early in the morning. I’m out of bed and going not long after him but it’s also his favorite time of the day to visit with me.


So what’s a girl do? I long for quiet time digging into God’s word. But, I also know I’m not a night person at all.


I’ve learned to compromise. I crawl out of bed saying “Good morning” to Jesus. Then, I enjoy as much time as possible with my hubby before he heads out of the house to start chores.

After he leaves I snuggle in with my Heavenly Father, ready to hear from Him. Coming before Him with open arms and empty hands ready to receive and respond.


I love the first verse in the song “Give Me Jesus”.

In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
Give me Jesus


Give me Jesus, give me Jesus
You can have all this world
But give me Jesus


So no matter how your morning starts out, remember God is ready to meet with you!
