I love mornings. The world is beginning to wake up, birds are singing songs of hope and joy. It’s a pleasure to have your head up, looking for all that is fresh and full of possibilities.

That’s how I want to approach my day. And the week. Head up, looking for possibilities.

Instead of having my head down, trudging through the mundane, I will look for ways to be a positive influence in the lives of people I come in contact with.

Whether it’s a word of encouragement, a hug, an “attaboy” or “attagirl,” or simply listening to someone’s story, I want to connect with others in the way that God has intended.

How will you be ready for your God appointments this week?
