So, here I am to embark on this journey of an exposed daily quiet time.  For the record, I am not a morning person.  In fact, I am about as far from a morning person as you can get.  I was hopeful that I would wake up this morning hearing birds sing, a smile on my face, and skip into the other room to begin praying.  Not exactly.  But, I did sit down and start my day with prayer and reading.  I will say that I have missed this feeling that after a good morning conversation with GOD, the fears of the rest of the day already seem small in comparison.  No matter what is thrown at me today, I know that I have blessings to look forward to as long as I  “walk according to the law of the Lord” and “seek him with all of my heart”.   Hope you are joining me!
