The kettle hasn't even clicked off yet, and already your soul is reaching for something steady. Thursday stands in the doorway, still quiet. Before the noise starts, let the first voice you hear be His.
"Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee." — Psalm 143:8 (KJV)
This morning's prayer Lord, speak before the world does. Let the first sound in my ears this morning be Your lovingkindness, not my worries, not my to-do list. I trust You today, even where the road ahead looks foggy. Show me which way to walk — not the whole map, just the next right step. My soul reaches up to You now, arms open like a child waiting to be lifted. Steady my thoughts. Quiet my rushing. Let me move through this day rooted in trust, not driven by fear. Thank You for a fresh morning and a listening God. Amen.
Today, on purpose:
Pause before checking your phone; listen for God first.
