set your mind above

Can I encourage you ( and myself) to start your days with scripture instead of your phone?? I know, it’s a challenge. The first thing I do in the morning is touch my phone to turn off the alarm. Checking a few things on various apps helps me to wake up and slowly enter into the world I so desperately want to ignore by falling back asleep.

But the days I do avoid the temptation, roll out of bed, grab coffee and open the Bible first are different. The days aren’t better necessarily, but just different in a really peaceful kind of way.

Maybe it’s just one verse in Psalms or an entire book of the Bible. But there is power and beauty to starting our day by “setting our minds on the things above” (Colossians 3:2).
