I'm biting the bullet. I've been wanting to do this for awhile now, but just haven't had the gumption to do it. Kayleigh helped jump start me this morning, so I figured, "Ok, today is the day." Today is the day that I (begin) to become a morning person. I say "begin" because I know this is going to be a process, a transformation if you will. See I am definitely not a morning person, but neither am I a late night owl... I guess you could say I'm more of a mid-morning/afternoon person. Lately my alarm clock has been my daughter, and she's been waking up about 8 am. And just about every night before I get in bed, I think about the things that didn't get done that day. An intriguing thought or a fun experience that didn't get blogged about, a chapter of a book that didn't get read, laundry that didn't get washed, a prayer time that got cut short, and some days a shower that didn't get taken.
I probably won't be jumping out of bed and getting the laundry going or typing up an inspiring blog entry... but I will take the time to get myself ready for the day. Physically ready for what God has in store. Spiritually ready so that I can know what that is.
So my 8 is now 6. I'm going to become a morning person. It won't be easy... in fact I'm sure that some mornings I will put up a very weak fight, turn the alarm off and roll over in my bed. But hopefully I'll grow more accustomed to 6. Hopefully I'll like how 6 changes me and that will be my morning motivation.
