My day starts at 5am. It’s mostly dark…partially cold and all too early in my book yet that’s the only way my day will start and end smoothly. To help give that start the fuel it needs the first thing I do each day is have a little chat -with God – you know pray.

Not a long one or even a deep theologically based one. More like a “Hey Daddy it’s me. Just saying good morning and asking for strength wisdom guidance and blessings for this day.”

Yup that’s it. Quick short and to the point. I used to think to pray I had to be on my knees and ready to ‘go in’ but I’ve learned (thankfully) that God is my Father and even better my Daddy. I can talk to Him and expect Him to listen as myself. He does k ow me best after all so why put on all the sparkle?

Of course soon after my chat with God comes coffee and the rsuh of all it is to be Women Wife Momma and More but the only way I get through any of that is by starting all of it with Him.

This part of my day began when I was younger, probably around 18. I have always been taught to pray as a part of who I am but it wasn’t until after I had been through of a few of my own life challenges that I realized I could pray just like I talk. Since then I look forward to my chats with God. Not saying I don’t have a meditation time where things get a bit more – in depth – but those start of the day chats…those are the best part of my day.

How do you start your day?
