Mornings

I recently went through a personal debate about whether to have my devotions in the morning or at night. I had been struggling with hitting the snooze button too many times and sleeping through my time with God, so I thought maybe I should do them before I went to bed, instead. While I think it's most important to simply have devotions, and the timing isn't the most important thing, I decided it was more important for me to overcome my weakness and be recharged every morning so I had something to face my day with. That decision was reinforced when I read Psalm 5:3 this morning: "Listen to my voice in the morning Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly."

If I brought my requests to God at night, would I really be able to wait expectantly? I'd wait for about 5 minutes, then fall asleep. I probably wouldn't even remember all of the thoughts I had the following day. So for me, like David, it's definitely mornings.
