Read Psalm 92:2-3
How do you start your day? What's the first thing you do when you get out of bed in the morning? Drink a cup of coffee? Take a shower? Exercise? Eat some breakfast? Read the morning comics?
What about the end of your day? What's the last thing you do at night before you go to bed? Raid the refrigerator? Brush your teeth? Cozy up with a good book? Catch some T.V.?
Does your morning or evening routine include a few moments to think about God? Taking a few moments in the morning to focus on God makes sense because you never know what the rest of your day will hold.
But spending time with God in the morning is not the only important time. Spending time with him in the evening makes sense, too. Just before you go to bed you have the opportunity to think through your day and remember all the ways God demonstrated his faithfulness to you.
Think About It
The writer of Psalm 92 took a few moments in BOTH the morning and the evening to think about God. He said, "It is good to announce your mercy in the morning and your faithfulness in the evening." Consider setting aside a few more moments each day to remember God. It doesn't have to be very long or formal. If you don't already, find a few moments in the morning to dedicate your day to God. Also, consider setting aside a few moments each night to thank God for his influence in your day.
Pray About It
Father, I don't want to take you for granted. Remind me to dedicate each day to you and end each day remembering your faithfulness to me.

I am not a morning person per say. I have learned to talk with God before getting up. It doesn't take long. I let Him know I love Him, I trust Him and look forward to the day with Him.
Later, I read my Bible and devotional when I am awake. I need a cup of coffee and a little timie to get awake. I want God to get my best.
I also thank Him at the end of the day. I have never been good at going through my day and letting Him show how to do better the next day.
That will be my goal now!
