Psalm 63:1
There are four words that stand out to me from this passage more than the others. They are “earnestly I seek You”. First of all, when I think of these words, I strongly believe this is what God desires of my heart each day that I live. Second, I strongly believe that this should be my prayer each day as I wake up and go into my day.
I really do like to start each day by having quiet time with
God. I just don’t like starting my day
any other way. It doesn’t seem to go
well when I don’t. However, I do find
myself going through the motions many days just praying the same prayer and not
really thinking about what I’m praying.
If I am really serious and earnest about following God and
doing what He says, I will strive to think about Him all through my day. He is my God and I want to earnestly seek Him
and follow Him. In every single thing I
do and say, I want God’s love to show through.
I want people to feel Him when they are around me and to know He is Lord
and Savior of my life. There are some
days, though, when He does not show through me very well because I am so
unfocused and not earnestly seeking Him because I’m distracted by so many other
things.
I hope and pray that this passage will be a sincere prayer
from your heart to God each day that you wake up and get going. If you do not have a personal quiet time with
God to start your day, I highly recommend it.
It seems like such a great way to start the day and getting focused on
Him and asking Him to guide and direct the day.
This is just a very conscious way to start the day and it can really
help us focus on Him throughout the day.
I encourage all of us to start our day asking God to help us
focus on Him and go through our day earnestly seeking Him.
