I woke up this morning smiling. I wasn't smiling because I felt comfortable or because I felt good. I wasn't smiling because I felt completely rested and wide awake. No, I was smiling because when I woke up this morning I felt the Presence of God all around me. The moment I opened my eyes I experienced His Presence. I was smiling because when I woke up He was Right there welcoming me into the day. That's the moment you know the day is going to be good. The moment He walks into it.
That is what it is all about...His Presence. Life is pointless, empty, and worthless without Him being in it. Although, many times when we wake up in the morning we lose sight of this fact. Instead of Him being the first thing on our mind we are thinking about all we need to do, where we need to be, or how many mouths we need to feed. I know I have done this many times and I am sure we have all done it once or twice! God is telling us, "I NEED to be FIRST."
I would give everything, go anywhere, to have that every morning, every day, every hour.
Let's Not leave God in our after thoughts. Instead let us awake ready to connect, ready to experience His Presence. Let us be seekers of His Presence. Let us be a people full of the Presence of God.
It starts the moment we open our eyes.
Oh, God is So Good!
