Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine.

Another day done by the program, God only knows how many left.

That first thought of the day change has really paid off for me. I used to be so tired when I woke up in the morning that i'd be leaning against the wall with my eyes closed as im brushing my teeth. Now that my FIRST (FIRST, first, first) thought is godly, I am on full WARMODE first thing in the morning, NO COFFEE NEEDED.

I urge everyone to try: First thoughts Godly when you wake up, thats how you overcome the first thing in the morning, you aint tired and demotivated.

I find the morning energizing...but I am energized at night too which can be a problem.... but I hate it when you wake up tired... yes make the first thought of the day.... "Excellent, one more day to shine the light before it is too late!"

I still miss Fran tho! Wish she would make a comeback. I don't know why I just like her! There was more serious discussion and action back then. These new guys are just spamming the same stuff over and over

Love that verse ive seen many pastors quote that as "till I come" meaning Jesus. Its actually Paul writing to Timothy, not talking about Jesus' return.

If she came back with the right understanding of the complete gospel that would be awesome.

Yep Paul unto Timothy as a pastor......I liked Fran too, but despised her false twist of the word.....just like Junior is doing in this thread......amazing how many just say to h☆☆☆ with context, deny verbiage, word definitions and practical applications of what is actually being said while peddling false gospels and dogmas with no power to save..!!

They ( the non OSAS) do have to twist scripture to make it work, really learned that on this thread .......all the different variations.

Im happy for you! Were you always energized or did it come later? I have always struggled with MORNINGs, im definately a night owl, you catch me when its time to go to bed and im ENERGIZED eyes wide open. Catch me in the mornings im bout to fall asleep.

Thats one thing I love about WORKING in the mornings though, im still HALF-WAY sleeping so the first hours of working feel like im not even there hahahaha!

@dcontroversal @UnderGrace ya'll a bunch of warriors.

I can't prove it but ive read that its about GENETICS. Some folks are night owls some morning birds.

Im waiting for someone to provide evidence to make me feel better. ;)

I eat 6 times a day what y'all talking about TWICE? Thats malnourishment. I need ATLEAST 3000 calories to maintain my bodyweight.

Could be genetics .. on the farm you have to get up early.. generation after generation, maybe it gets passed down.

I command you to eat more dcon with all the physical labour you do, you need to consume more calories to add weight/muscle. Only two meals a day you are barely getting in 2000 calories with the amount of work you do, you need more calories bro!
