“I used to wake up every day for devotions—until life gotso busy!”

“I haven’t gotten up early to read the Bible in years.”

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: It can be hard for busy moms to make time for the Lord first thing in the day. But the more I study the Word of God, the more convinced I am that we need to spend the first part of every day with Him.

“My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee” (Psalm 5:3).

“I cry to you for help, O LORD; in the morning my prayer comes before you” (Psalm 88:13).

“Awake, my soul! Awake harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn” (Psalm 57:8).

“I rise before dawn and cry for help” (Psalm 119:147).

Nancy: God is offering you an invitation. Would you ask Him to waken you tomorrow morning when He wants to meet with you?

“He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught” (Isaiah 50:4).

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.
