About Getting Up Early For Devotions....

These thoughts came to me while I was having a little “pity party” about the house being cold and the hour being EARLY and wanting to sunggle deeper and stay in bed…

About Getting Up Early For Devotions....

I waken at 6:23 and

Think of the house being cold.

Fifty-eight degrees seems awful

Though I know early is Your GOLD.

I snuggle buried deep

In blankets piled high

It matters not that I have slippers, robe

I hardly even try

Then I think of those in chains

Who suffer much for You

No plush carpet or spare bedroom

But wet moldy floors and dungeon darkness too

Help me oh Lord to recollect

Times not so long ago

When I was imprisoned in my sin

And Jesus I didn’t know

Help me be get of bed

In early AM too

Because I cherish the time I’m free

To spend with my Friend so true.
