“Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.”
— Proverbs 3:9-10, The New International Version
Nice little reminder of how I wish to start my day—focused on Him. Doesn’t always happen that way, but to try is better than not trying at all, right? If I can start my day reminding myself of where my focus is, and welcoming the challenges and celebrations that will come, my attitude and outlook will be much better. Should be better. It is not that I want the day to be easy and stress free, but I want the day to be a joint venture between me and the Holy Spirit.
If I don’t start the day by sharing it with God, is there some magical hour when it suddenly and magically is time to invite Him in? Is it when I have time?
How would I feel if God gave me the leftovers?
