My favorite part of the day is the morning. I enjoy the peace and serenity I get before the hustle and bustle of daily life begins. I drink coffee, read devotionals, and Big Book, study Bible, meditate, and pray for things in my life such as God, family, and friends. This daily routine has been essential in my recovery from drugs and alcohol.
MEET HIM IN THE MORNING
I try to meet Him in the morning
When the earth is fresh with dew
The birds are singing sweet melodies
As I savor a cup of brew
The world might think I’m alone
I sometimes believe that lie
Then wonder if the sky starts crying
Because flowers bloom and die
But if I see with grateful eyes
Or lend Him a thoughtful ear
Peace will blossom in my heart
I’ll feel His spirit near
And when the skies begin to weep
New sprouts will rise above
For God will use each teardrop
To spread His eternal love
That love adorns a gravesite
or in a grand bouquet
Sometimes on someone’s birthday
Or maybe Mother’s Day
So when isolated storms in life
Erupt without a warning
I can find refuge in His presence
If I meet Him in the morning
