What did you have for breakfast this morning? I had OATMEAL…
Not the instant kind, but the real deal…the stand-over-the-stove-and-stir cooked oatmeal. I added milk and a little brown sugar and fresh fruit and walnuts. YUMMY!
I don’t eat oatmeal just because it is a delicious breakfast… it is also a powerhouse of protein, iron and fiber. It gives my body energy, fills me up and helps me stay healthy… it’s good for me and a good thing to do in the morning! Spending time with God in the morning is a whole lot like eating oatmeal for breakfast…
Just like oatmeal God’s word has it’s benefits…
It’s good for us. Nourishing us by…teaching us, showing us where we are getting off track, feeding us the truth, and training us to be in right standing with God!
God’s word is spiritual food! We need it to be spiritually healthy!
Skipping breakfast is bad for our physical health…. skipping time in God’s word is bad for our spiritual health.
So eat your breakfast… and spend time with God daily…
It’s good for you!
This week’s memorization verse:
THY WORD IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET AND A LIGHT UNTO MY PATH. Psalm 119:105

June 19, 2016 at 7:19 pmYour spiritual words today are inspirational as are your design tips and lovely tablescapes. My favorite is the four-bottle walk when you are spiritually dried up. I sent the link to my priest as it seemed like such a good way for adults to spiritually replenish. Keep these spiritual gems coming. I love them

June 19, 2016 at 9:11 amGood morning Yvonne
I look forward every morning to spend time with God in prayer, scripture, and coffee. It brings me peace and focus for the day. Some mornings I do all the talking but I’m learning to not talk so much and just be still and listen to him speak to me. When I do I hear what I need.
Thank you Yvonne for your beautiful heart. Now I’m off to 10:00 Mass.
