I am not a morning person, never have been and never will be. A few years ago, when my body was doing better, I was able to wake up every morning and recite Scripture. It was a time of great peace, and it really changed me permanently.
These days the body aches every morning. But this morning, I did remember to say Proverbs 3:5-6, and already I feel better. I know God wants us to start our day with him, but it is an on-going process.
As for coffee, back in my hippie days, I was offered coffee three mornings in a row. I decided it was a worse drug than any of the street drugs I had encountered. In about 15 minutes I was perky and wide awake, and still awake when night and sleep were supposed to come.
I fondly refer to coffee as "the Christian addiction." By the way, my husband is a fond addict of the coffee bean. So try not to jump on me too heavily! LOL
