When you first wake up, what do you think about? Maybe it’s what you need to do that day, or what’s for breakfast, or even how to help a spouse or children? Those are all important, but our first and continued thought throughout the day really should be “What does my Father want?” We want to be well pleasing to Him.
God tells us, His kids, to pray always. But in my early years as a believer, busy with family, job, school, friends, fellowship, traveling, and all those things that seem to keep us busy, I neglected my prayer time with God. Troubles would come up and I’d get serious about it for a while until I received God’s deliverance, then back to busy.
