What are you listening to this morning?

good morning, I pray your Monday is off to a great start and that your day is one filled with only good things...if by chance the Monday monster has come to see you today...tell it to go away and have a good day anyway...remember positive breeds positive and only you can let negative take over your day!!!


In prayer this morning I prayed my normal morning prayers asking for mercy and favor, I asked God to bless each of you with his unconditional love, with his peace, with his calm, and with his comfort....I asked God to continue to bless those in need of physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial healing and to touch each of those in need with compassion and understanding. I ask all of these blessings in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen....

Do you ever sit out and just listen...not to the hustle and bustle of the world but somewhere up above..where the birds sing happy songs? One of my favorite parts of the morning is the singing of the birds and my evening the songs of the crickets...God has blessed each of us with a joyful noise!!! I pray you take time to enjoy this gift each day! 

A Little Morning Music

I walked out on my porch this morning to the wonderful sight of the sun rising over the mountains. I smiled as its golden beams lit up the clear, blue sky. My light jacket was unbuttoned and the morning breeze felt warm and comforting. The trees were still bare of any buds, but I could feel a sense of the coming Spring on this February day. I breathed in the fresh air and thanked God for this glorious day to be alive. I thought that only one thing was missing that would make this a perfect moment: a little morning music. 

Then suddenly I heard it. God had granted my wish. The morning music had arrived. It was the first birdsongs of the year. After the cold and silent mornings of Winter nothing could have sounded sweeter. The music was coming from every direction. The birds were singing for love, for joy, and for God. They were calling on Spring to hurry along and life to return to this world once more. I stood still and just listened. I could feel my own soul awakening to Heaven’s joy and my own heart filling with God’s love. It truly was a perfect moment. 

Sometimes we all go through the harshness of Winter in our lives. Sometimes we all feel cold, dead, and quiet inside. Sometimes we all wonder where the music has gone. It is then, however, that we need to tell the little bird in our souls to sing once again. It is then that we need to ask God to fill us with His love and His music. It is then that we need to awaken our inner Spring and share its life and warmth with the world. 

I hope that you always take the time to hear the birds singing in the trees and the bird singing in your soul. I hope that you fill your days with songs of joy, acts of love, and thoughts of God. I hope that you start everyday of your life here with a little morning music and carry it’s Heavenly melody in your heart all day long.
