(Proverbs 31:15 KJV) She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
When I was young I would have hated this verse. The idea of getting up early was ugly. Now that I am getting older and my body won’t let me lay in bed I am finding it easier to enjoy the early morning a hours.
Early morning is a special time. Once I am up and awake I find that my mind is at its sharpest. That means that I am more tuned in to hear the voice of the Lord. Once I get over the emotional upheaval of not sleeping in I can benefit from the experience. There are other references to this.
So? Give it a try. Start drinking coffee if that is the only way you can get the juices flowing. See if a morning time of worship will make your day better. Some things you never know until you try.

An Idea Borrowed
Years ago on a radio program someone shared that they read a chapter in Proverbs every day. Since there are 31 chapters and the longest month has 31 days it allows you to read through Proverbs on a regular basis. I use it as the launch pad for my personal worship time and branch out from there. On this blog I will try to share some of the insights I have in the Word. I will try to organize them in the archive by reference.
