Every morning, I\u2019m up and at \u2018em by 5:30 am to look over the text of my blog one more time before I hit the \u201cpost\u201d button. Not long after that, I send my morning \u201cI love you\u201d text messages to my children. I\u2019m like clock-work with my daily deliveries \u2013 on FB, my blogger page and those text messages. I always feel like I\u2019m \u201creporting for duty\u201d each morning. And, then, it\u2019s checking in with Heaven Central as, while it\u2019s still dark outside, I make a cup of flavored coffee, settle into my favorite chair and, now, for the last few chilly mornings \u2013 put on my fireplace. I grab my lightweight blanket and reach for my journal and devotional. It\u2019s my morning ritual — my time with Him. Our time to be together.<\/p>\n

I get to be with Jesus. What will He show me today? How will today\u2019s walk and talk with Him affect me and those I\u2019ve been called to encourage? I don\u2019t want to miss a single thing in God\u2019s Word that could make a significant difference in my day. I don\u2019t want the distractions of the clock or my cell phone or the weight of daily assignments to pull my thoughts away from His. I\u2019ve come to meet with Jesus — to gather with Him for a momentary time at the \u201cwell\u201d to take in His \u201cliving water\u201d. It\u2019s the same \u201cliving water\u201d that He gave to the Samaritan woman. (John 4:4\u201342) That water He offered her would cause her to never thirst again. I also meet Him at the “well”, and each day I am filled with joy, peace, comfort, hope, and strength. Then, like the Samaritan woman, I go and tell via my daily posts. I share with others about this Man Who not only promised her and me that He would be our everything, He also said “I am that living water. I am that Spirit. that Truth, that Way, that Life.\u201d \u201cMany Samaritans from that city believed in Him because of the woman’s testimony.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

This is the Jesus that prompts me each morning to share His Good News. I like to think that I\u2019m like that Samaritan woman as I pass along His \u201cliving water\u201d to others, too. In those priceless moments that Jesus had with the Samaritan woman at the town well where she came to draw water, Jesus opened her eyes and heart to a love as she had never known before. She had a revelation of Jesus \u2013 the one who ignited a fire in her soul to go tell the townspeople about Jesus. In our special moments with God, let\u2019s ask Him to open our hearts so wide that we long to know His love like we’ve never known before. Let\u2019s yearn for a deeper understanding of His character. Let\u2019s wake up every day saying, \u201cGood Morning Jesus,\u201d and embrace the desire to spend time with Him, discovering His truths, and rejoicing in His promises.<\/p>\n

And in those quiet moments as we read through the pages of our Bible, may we pray that our eyes are opened to see Him more clearly and hear Him more distinctly. And when He does, let\u2019s respond with a wellspring of joy and gratitude that will cause us to “go and tell” about this Man who quenched our thirst and made our spirits soar!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
