It’s just that simple!
My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning my spirit longs for you. (Isaiah 26:9 NVI)
Try a little prayer time every day, early in the morning before beginning your day’s work, asking Jesus to help you, lead you, and guide you.
When you first wake up, before you do anything else, talk to Jesus. Get your orders from Him for the day. You’ll be amazed at how He’ll solve a lot of your problems before the day even starts, if you will simply listen to what He has to say.
But if you go plunging into your day’s work without stopping to talk to Jesus and get your directions from Him, you’ll be like a musician who decided to have his concert first and then tune his instrument.
Begin the day with the Word of God and prayer, and get in harmony with Him first of all.
Don’t ever think that it’s too hard to pray or you haven’t got time to pray. The busier your day, the more reason you have to pray and the longer you ought to pray. If you’ll just spend a little more time praying, you will find that you’ll spend a lot less time working to get things done later.
If your day is hemmed with prayer, it is less likely to unravel. It’s just that simple! —DBB [1]
Enter the inner chamber of your soul, shut out everything except God and that which can help you in seeking him, and when you have shut the door, seek him. Now, my soul, say to God, “I seek your face; Lord, it is your face that I seek.” Amen. —Saint Anselm
