Absolutely.

I can't stress enough how important this is.

Instead of nagging and having a negative outlook about having to wake up for another work day, dealing with your boss, your annoying or lazy co-worker, unfixed problems with your spouse, family members or roommate/s, stressing about your financial situation, the state of this world and society.. etc. try looking to God first.

For the last few years as soon as I wake up I began telling myself "I'm blessed. Thank you Father for another day." followed by reading scripture and/or listening to devotionals. Regardless of how little I slept that night, or if I was in pain, the problems that I was/am facing, those words remain the first that I either speak outloud or pray in silence. You have no idea how much it changes your day.

I'm not saying that your problems will disappear because that's unrealistic, but starting every single day being thankful and seeking Christ, you invite Father to be the very first thing that enters your thoughts and your heart. By doing this you create space for Father to work on you, guide you and strengthen you.

The key much like with anything else is consistency. Building regular time with Father into your routine helps you stay on track with your spiritual goals. It sets the tone for the day (and the rest of it), helps create postive habits and growing closer to God.

This is precisely why I also like my first post (and last) to be scripture on this channel.

Remember that it is a journey not a destination, so be patient and persistent. You'll discover amazing joy and (supernatural) peace that comes from starting to day with Father.
